Yeah.... mikey likey, too.... alot! This is the Vaya Ti X0 with Surly Knard 41 rubber. With Titanium frame, it weighs in at just shy of 22 pounds as shown in a 54 cm frame with pedals, bar end mirror, and Serfas Rx Race Ready saddle. The bag was not mounted when the bike was weighed. I had my LBS change out the black bar tape for Salsa yellow bar tape prior to delivery. I just felt it would make for a more striking appearance. The HED Belgium+ rims are just awesome in their appearance and build.
Marrakesh is interesting, but you gotta' check out the Salsa Deadwood 29+ due for a Fall intro here: http://salsacycles.com/culture/introducing_deadwood
@Spatialized, if you think the Fargo is cool, that new Deadwood will probably floor you with its 3-inch wide Surly Knard rubber. I have those tires on my Surly ECR and they can take me pretty deep into the backwoods. Not fast, but my Surly ECR is almost unstoppable, like a [two-wheeled] Jeep with pedals. The tall and wide 29+ Knard tires generate a lot of momentum to carry you up and over almost any obstacle with little concern. Truly an amazing, confidence-inspiring ride.0 -
@Mikey - the boyfriend wants the Deadwood. Salsa seriously needs to stop producing such rad bikes.0

@gooseonabike I know! I already asked my LBS to look into pre-ordering one for me.... Just one week after picking up my Vaya Ti. I'm so bad!0

Beautiful bike! Enjoy your new baby!0

No better way to say 'lose more weight fatass' than by receiving a 4XL jersey and it still be too small. Albeit this brand 'Funkier' is known for running very small, but still. Even their biggest size is made for a very lean person. It's near fitting but def not wearable in public, yet. I got it to match my bicycle. Corny, I know.

I take XXL's in pretty much every non-italian jerseys (48" chest) but definitely need XXXL in Castelli / Sportful. If you want to avoid getting depressed, please don't even bother looking at Santini. I recently got one of their very, very lovely "Maglia Storica" series jerseys (pictures back on page 20 of this thread) - the "Solo Superia" (Eddy's first team when he went pro!) and while its truly a gorgeous bit of kit, its a 5XL and it fits me at the moment rather like a skinsuit (which is NOT really how it's cut - its a more historical cut rather than a modern "performance" cut garment.

I may have ordered THE last Primal 'Jolly Roger' available in a 3XL as the line is discontinued. Hopefully it will fit. I have an XL Primal that is far too small for me but I am hoping the 2x size increase will allow me some room.

Great job on the ride!!!
Nice jersey. I liked this year's design.
I did my ride back in May. Ordered my champion kit at the end of June and I'm still waiting on it. Grrr!
Update:
I just checked my email, and it shipped last week and should arrive tomorrow. Will post pics when I get it!0 -

Jersey arrived yesterday and it's a perfect fit! Can't wait to rock it on the group ride this weekend.0 -
That Jolly Roger jersey is great! I love the green behind the skull and crossbones. Glad it fits so well -- enjoy!0

A mate of mine had a Foska Bones Jacket that he used to wear when we used to go night-MTB'ing a few years ago. Was excellent seeing the reaction of oncoming people when they saw him riding up the trail to them in the dark - the white bits are actually scotchlite reflectives...
I particularly like the "fishbone" details.

That is classic! LOL!0

I tried to post a picture of the new winter commuter that arrived yesterday, but ....fail.0

A few new personal touches to my Salsa Vaya Ti X0 shown here. Elite Pria Pave bottle cages, BM Works Tool Stash in the rear cage, BikeWrappers on the frame, a couple of rear lights (Bontrager rechargeable and PDW Radbot), Bushwhacker Reno bar bag, and Avenir Big Mouth saddle bag under a Serfas Rx Race Ready saddle. I'm lovin' it!

I've got this on order through the company I work for 'cycle to work' scheme! :-D About time I got some reward for commuting everyday, whatever the weather! ;-)
So this is a 2016 Trek Emonda S4, my first 'full carbon' road bike, and I am chomping at the bit to get my leg over it, and give it a proper thrashing! ;-) Just waiting for the powers that be to sort themselves out! ;-) Hopefully a week or so now! :-/
Just in time for the hill climb season! ;-)

Am I the only one who didn't get a new bike this season? I need to get my bank account above zero so I can try and push D-1 from four bikes to five. 0

No new ride for me, either. However, I am trying to talk the wife into getting one so she can start training for a charity ride she wants to do with me. Would that count? lol0 -
No bike for me either. Yet. Talking to the shop this week though to see if he can order a Surly Wednesday for me. As the saying goes, it ticks all the boxes for me.0
