So after about a decade since my childhood ended where I used a mountain bike to get everywhere, I picked up a bike of the 'go faster' variety. This is my workout/training/wind in my hair/I just want to be outside bike. Picked it up from my LBS after they gave me an offer I couldn't refuse. in just over a month I've got between 550 and 600 miles on it, riding on weekends only.
I have since outfitted it with Shimano 105 pedals (to match the rest of the 105 components), a Garmin 500 with cadence and HRM, and some bottle cages. I also took the liberty of taking off a few things like the reflectors (rear wheel reflector was actually broken within a few weeks) and the dork disk on the rear after it cracked. My total investment on this bike of around $1600 doesn't approach the high end stuff out there, but I love this thing just the same.

Can you tell me where did you buy the bottle cages? I haven't seen something better than it. They are a perfect match!!!!
