We can build her

The fine folks at Team Dayton Cycling have made soon possible a new addition to my two wheeled harem.

I introduce to you the soon-to-be "Nana 2.0":

She's a 2006 Fuji Roubaix Pro with carbon fiber stays and fork.

This little cutie sits attached to the uterine pegboard wall of the womb that is my basement corner "bike room". At this stage of her development, she weighs a mere 4 pounds, 12 ounces. If she emerged into the world today, she wouldn't even be able to roll. She's due in June, when she'll have handlebars, wheels, a drivetrain and a saddle. Hopefully, she'll still be sub-16 pounds by then.

She's going to be modeled after Nana 1.0 (my late grandmother) who was light, nimble and had silver highlights.

So, Nana 2.0 will continue to develop for the next weeks as her soon to be Daddy supplies her parts. So, if I seem a bit distant, it's probably because I'm absorbed with this.

Yeah. Some guys sit on the computer with their hands down their pants and watch pornography. That's not my style. I'm on eBay bidding on parts and on Excel Sports comparing gram weights...

...with my hand down my pants.
