Meet Serra



Silent Saturdays
slide by in his saddle
The boy named Serra
who
just like Johnny Cash's Sue
will fight anyone who
dares oppose his name.
That's just what I want
- A fighter.

Blogosphere, meet Serra.
A custom-built Waterford bike
frame weight 3 lbs, 4 oz.
Total build 18.5 pounds.
Hand-built wheels 1401 grams
Acceleration 0 to 20 in seconds.
Middle name?
Speedy-quick.

Nice!

You look comfy and smiling. Win / win.

I'm not one for naming bikes. Since you did, it's time get it out there in the mud and the blood and the beer. Show them you've got gravel in your guts. Come back with some results!

TT,

Serra??? (as in Sarah?) You really have given him a chip on his shoulder! He's got something to prove now. He will be consumed with a continual obsession to prove himself. Since he can't rely on his name, he must rely on his courage and will, go out to battle the hell-fires of adversity and nay sayers. He will win, he won't give up until he does. He will come back a hero. I know exactly how he feels.

That saddle looks a little, ah,.... soft for a tough guy. Course the saddle is for you right?

Ride hard, ride long, ride often, TT. He can take it, he's built for it. I expect good times from your rides this summer.

Very nice. I like the bike names. It's good luck to have a good name. Besides, who else are you going to talk to out there?

Disregard my prior email question. There's the BIKE. It's a boy. This perplexes me. How do you pick the sex?

Looking good!

I'm planning to make a few adjustments to my bike and finally give it a name.

Sweet ride! But you better keep him away from my beloved Carmen. She loves bad boys, and he looks dangerous.
