Is it NOS? And is that a Paul post?
Super long back story on this one.

Heading out for an all day ride, but I'll fill in the blanks in a thread soon.

Not a Paul post though.

Definitely part of the premanent stable. I wont get another shot at one of these anytime soon.

VO Porteur bag

One of these, for the commuter:

Will probably need some modifications, but the size should fit me needs and compared to a custom bag, the price was acceptable.

the 35mm setback allows the clamp to be center of saddle rails for my fit, right now the saddle is slammed back on a American Classic post

Shimano mo88 shoes. I love them! This my first set of cycling specific shoes. Goodbye toe cages!

I also picked up a lightly used Shimano Deore LX front der from my favorite LBS for $13. Last puzzle piece for my mountain turned touring/commuter.

Still waiting for one more piece of the puzzle to come in and complete the kit but here is my latest:

Rapha's new Aero jersey
Rapha pro team bibs
Bont zero plus in gamma blue
New Oakley Radar EV'S in sky blue with sapphire lens

This kit looks the bizzzzzzz all together!!!! Waiting on a vest to come in that will tie it all together.

Some 2014 fun, for my 2015 fitness and possible part of a local race team... TBD...

Transferring my shimano 105 5800 group set to this frame.

Ordered:
11-28 cassette
11-32 cassette
Shimano 5800 medium rear deraillier (have short, need med to fit the 32 for hilly rides since I am a noob and don't have the legs yet)
my first ever cycling Jersey (3xl son... lol)
Castelli gloves ( i always thought cyclists looked stupid wearing gloves... After doing 9 miles on a road bike I know why they wear them along with padded shorts... ouch)

Just bought a Dengfu carbon cx fork... sadly I can't use it because I was a scrub and didn't notice it was tapered.

Latest upgrades

Upgraded 105 groupset to full Sram Red 22 about a month ago with Yoko reaction cables. Shifting/ braking has been amazing.

Also got the aero walkable covers for my Speedplay cleats. Have to say those are game changers

3 additional purchases that I'm considering:

1. Toupe Pro or S-Works Toupe saddle to replace my Toupe Expert
2. KCNC Ti Skewers to replace OEM Mavic ones
