That's awesome. He's got normal pedals on it. That's just priceless.
I was reading the mrs's US magazine, and they have a section "See, they are like us" and I saw the stars riding road bikes..cervelo's, madones, S-works with flat pedals and backwards caps. Just on the boardwalk...I couldn't stop laughing.

Looks like this guy. Suger-ray on his dogma.

(devil's advocate here)... i look 15 (at best) - can't wait for the day someone decides i 'couldn't possibly afford my bike' to post me on craigslist with photo

Great work KidWok!

Hopefully with your photo the local authorities will add his face to their own database. He'll be pinched ...but I don't think he'll be hanging onto that bicycle for very long. Ten to one he'll say a friend let him borrow it.

Lol. There are tons of 15 year olds in my area that ride dogmas, S5's and Sworks. In fact I was riding today and saw a group of super young kids ridding Scott Addict R1's and cannondale evos. You would prob have a better chance of having someone coming up to you asking how it rides. :-)

Sorry...wasn't me that took the photo. There seem to be a lot of Seattle people in here so I figured I'd spread the word.

Thegunner...the post verified the bike was stolen and there are two Cervelo dealers within a couple of miles of that burger walk up. It seems likely that the situation wasn't misjudged, but I hear what your saying. The Cervelo has no rack eyelets so he has to carry his stuff somehow right? He looks pretty lean...could be a roadie I suppose.

haha yeah, no i hear ya - especially since the shops verified it. but i sometimes wonder what people think if i'm tooling around on a $5k bike in rolled up jeans / hoodie.

Yeah tbh i kinda look like that alot of the times im on my bike.

I use it for transportation and I'm not dressing in lycra to go have a coffee or meet a friend or whatever.

The pedals are hard to ignore on that bike tho :)

The pedals part is a good detail :) You cant deny the sucker has good taste in bikes :D
