Nathan -

You did not mention a price. I would like to see it too - I am in OC but coming through close in SE tomorrow sometime. Is there a time and place to discuss and view?

>> I lived and raced in Tucson for several years and spent many a Saturday morning on the famous Shootout (a required training ride on a team I raced with). That ride can be a good training tool, but it's completely illegal, no matter how you want to look at it. It's a 100-rider group racing on open roads with no permit, no rolling enclosure, no rules (no insurance). I've been on that ride at least once when it was headed off by Tucson P.D. and on many other occasions when Pileups took down a dozen riders or so, hospitalizing some. Just picture the most dangerous race you've ever seen at PIR - the Shootout is worse.
>>
>> Rides like the Shootout really do us no good. They make drivers hostile, injure numerous riders, and perpetuate the anti-bike bias in law enforcement. A weekly race series would serve Tucson much better. Fortunately, Portland already has racing almost every day of the week. Eugene, Bend, even Medford all have weekly races in the warm months.

Yes, occasionally the Eugene ride had conflicts with drivers, but my recollection is that it was not all that often. Most of the time, we policed ourselves pretty well. My big disagreement with Mike is the value as a racing experience. I learned a lot about racing tactics, and my race fitness was really improved by these rides. In a place like Eugene which has few races, it gave me the opportunity to push myself beyond anything I had ever done before (think trying to hold Carl Maxon's wheel).

>> For sale is a brand new, never ridden, still in the box, 2010 Fuji SST
>> 1.0 50cm frameset
>>
>> http://2010.fujibikes.com/Road/Aero/SST-1-0.aspx
>>
>> Technically Fuji calls this a Size XS, 50cm. But this bike does not
>> fit like a 50cm! It should be called a 52cm.
>>
>> The effective top tube is about 52cm. The seat tube is 68 cm
>> (including seat mast which can be cut). This does not include the
>> seatpost mounting bracket and the saddle itself. The longest you would
>> probably ride the seat post is about 76cm from center of bottom
>> bracket to top of saddle, this is long enough for someone who is
>> 5?-10?, if you are all legs, and love a huge drop from saddle to
>> handlebar, this would be perfect. Otherwise, I would recommend this
>> bike for someone between 5?5? and 5?-7?. It would fit nicely and
>> handle like a beauty.
>>
>> The frame and seat mast weigh 1040g! This is ridiculously light! Most
>> carbon bikes weigh this much without the seatpost (on average another
>> 200-300 grams for seatpost). And the fork is only 390g. The bike is
>> very stiff (SST = Super Stiff Carbon) and was designed to be a crit
>> racer, it is twitchy and fast.
>>
>> MSRP for the frame is ~$3,000.
>>
>> If you are interested, make me an offer!
