I passed one uphill yesterday, I was going to compliment the pilot on his wheels in between breaths but he cut me off with, "you caught me napping and I hate being passed." I guess now it's about the bike? |

Rapha isn't about the bike. It's about the (perceived) lifestyle. I would say that this film fits in perfectly with the Rapha ethos. Texbike |

I liked it. If it was longer I would have even popped some popcorn.
You know the film I really want to see? A film about a guy who's worked 45 years welding Walmart bikes in China and how he views his craft.

I think we all have misperceptions about people. We have mental images of how we think they are, but the truth is that our dentists, teachers, doctors, bike shop owners etc. have imperfections too...Cussing, smoking, womanizing, cheating, abusive, drinking, sexual procliitvies, unfocused...what combination do you think they are? I really enjoyed watching the video...I am intrigued by flawed men (being one myself) and I found humor in his TREATS t-shirt and the baloon anology. |

However, looking at his paint jobs, I assumed he was a bit of a free spirit. Tim |

Except the "abusive" part. Does yelling at me for crashing and scratching the HandleBra on the bike count as "abuse?" BBD

I enjoyed the film but I must say Pegoretti seems to enjoy being an "artist" of his craft as opposed to Serotta where everything is machined to exactness.
I would really like to own a Pegoretti but feel they are overpriced (meaning I can't afford one) but then again you're buying the "artist" as much as the bike itself and probably a good investment. Yes I do like his paint. |

could everyone with absolutely no self-destructive facets to his or her respective life please raise their hand?

I would raise my hand, but then I'd slosh my drink and that would put out my cigarette....
