Last monday was my 27th birthday.
I found myself an awesome deal on Craigslist, a 2005 Giant TCR 2 bike. And with the economical help of Kelly, it became mine. ( By the way, anyone wanting to give me a birthday present, feel free to make a small donation to go towards the money spent on the bike)
It’s awesome! The front and rear derailleurs are Ultegra, and the brakes are Shimano 105s. It’s very light-weight, and it rides very smoothly… and it looks sexy, as you can tell by the picture.
I’ve only ridden it a bit in its first week, but I’m already enjoying it a lot. The uphill ride from work took 10 minutes less than on the old bike, and it’s such a treat to ride on something that gives me a bit of pride. It’s the best birthday present!
