Killer Deal on a Titanium Bike

Model: 2005 Douglas 6 AL/4 V Titanium 56 cm Full Durace 10 speed, Reynolds carbon Ouzo Pro fork with threadless carbon steerer, Cane Creek headset (wheels not included)

Cost: $1500 

Summary: I bought this bike off the floor at the Colorado Cyclist. It had been their travel case model (and still is, but only in their print version catalog - p. 54 sitting inside the Trico Sports case.) The bike rocks; it is stiff with excellent responsiveness, but is also very forgiving. The bike was actually made by Litespeed for the Colorado Cyclist's Douglas line. Unfortunately, it is way too big for me. It came with a sweet 44 cm Stella Azzurra Tirenno Carbon handlebar - retail $400 - probably the nicest bars you'll ever hold onto. I took them off because they were too big for me, but I'll throw them in for $100 if you purchase this bike.

Crab Cakes and Muscles

After some tempo at HP, the Chicken and I were lucky enough to run into the Muscle. Later we had good eats at the Starfish Cafe on the hill.


Isn't that special . . .

She Got Bike

Today was the 3rd Annual She Got Bike and it was a huge success! Despite the near 100 degree temps and high humidity, we had over 500 women participate in different length rides followed by a festival offering food, bike clinics, and products from vendors and, of course, Joe's Bike Shop.

The C3-Sollay girls volunteered to lead and sag the rides of the day. We had lots of volunteers on bike and in the car to help out.
