Guru Praemio Titanium
It's here! 
75 miles down and loving it! I was wondering if I was just playing mind tricks with myself that a custom frame would actually "feel" different. However, my first ride was about 3 1/2 hours and all I had to do was adjust the seat. Flawless! More picks if you are curious...

I like a stiffer ride of aluminum but didn't want to get beat up. Most carbon feels too flexy for me. I know you can get carbon frames that are stiffer, but in terms of durability and performance this thing is just incredible.

Dear US Postmaster:
Please expedite the shipping of my SRAM Red group in any way possible. It is VERY important that these parts make it to their final destination.
Sincerely,
Brian

Zen Bicycle
A Zen teacher saw five of his students returning from the market, riding their bicycles. When they arrived at the monastery and had dismounted, the teacher asked the students, "Why are you riding your bicycles?"
The first student replied, "The bicycle is carrying this sack of potatoes. I am glad that I do not have to carry them on my back!" The teacher praised the first student. "You are a smart boy! When you grow old, you will not walk hunched over like I do."
The second student replied, "I love to watch the trees and fields pass by as I roll down the path!" The teacher commended the second student, "Your eyes are open, and you see the world."
The third student replied, "When I ride my bicycle, I am content to chant nam myoho renge kyo." The teacher gave his praise to the third student, "Your mind will roll with the ease of a newly trued wheel."
The fourth student replied, "Riding my bicycle, I live in harmony with all sentient beings." The teacher was pleased and said to the fourth student, "You are riding on the golden path of non-harming."
The fifth student replied, "I ride my bicycle to ride my bicycle." The teacher sat at the feet of the fifth student and said, "I am your student."
