For those who have never ridden with Chi, let me say that on the new member ride a few weeks ago, dude was sporting some slick shoe covers and matching kit. Doesn't surprise me that his ride looks just so too. Nice stylz!

Kayt...custom ti made for you? Double-triple suhhhweet! Congrats.
Luckily, I've officially blown my whole tax return so the holes in my pockets can be sewn shut. 

These photos have no effect on me. 
@Chi - that's a beautiful color scheme on that Cannondale. And @Kayt - that's one beautiful bike. Are you guys sure you want to race those bikes (I'd personally want to just watch it in my living room) ??  
I like that Chi built an altar for his bike.
OMG, those stays.  Dear almighty spaghetti monster, lead me not into temptation.

@Chi, great looking bike. What wheels are those?
Kayt, that thing is stunning. LOVE the stealth-yet-hi-viz Enve fork.

FACE STOMPER?! Chi, you better have the chops to back it up!
jesselash it's cheap chinese carbon. 23mm wide 38mm deep only 1330g not bad at all
@Kayt I just went back and re-ogled your bike.  Where did you find light like that to take the pictures?!?
It's so fine, it almost needs it's own glass garage...

Please tell me you're bringing her out tomorrow!

Also, name?!!?!
Chi...is that bottom bracket lying on a bottle of Oil of Olay?

@Kayt and others.  I just want to say I got a glimpse of Kayt's new bike today and, other than the bottle cages, it rocks righteously.  Don't let Yacks near that titanium though. As my parents used to say "Use it in good health."
Just finished building my new Dolan track bike, and got to take her out to race yesterday at Kissena. Really light, responsive frame. Definitely excited for track season on this bad boy. Spent months piecing together random parts scoured from eBay, Craigslist, and bike shop closeout deals, but it all came together in a somewhat cohesive way surprisingly.

Nice Jesse.

Excellent collection of new track bikes this year.
I'll be racing on these this year. Eventually. Sigh.
