Can't wait to see 808's mounted  (and to get a better camera).  And of course to actually ride it outside.

Hmmm... Bike porn or Entrepreneurship/philosphy homework? Tough.

Is that the "sex on wheels" one?

Just out of interest Stake, what size is that beautiful, sleek, carbon machine??  It's on my short list for a future impulse buy purchase.

Sweet ride Mike!

You are about as bad as I am on these impulse buys!  I almost got the Cervelo when I picked up the Kalibur.  It is one nice ride that you got.  Many happy miles!

Wow! That's a sweet bike.

I saw a several folks training on P3s yesterday. Since yesterday was the nicest day we've had all week, I think half of the Bay Area was out on their bikes, so I was bound to see some awesome bikes. The P3, though, kinda looks menacing in-person.

Most people impulse buy shoes or a helmet or something ...... not a full bike!

Nice work, I expect to see you flying by me on Route 1 while training .......

Of all things, it'a a 51.  I went from a 54 Dual.    Apparently the geometry of the P3C is very different from the others for a given size.  This bike has a 53.? top-tube, which fits me perfectly.  I thought I was going to have to go up a size at first and rode the 56, which (obviously) was waayyy too big.

I have never known a more expert, experienced, and talented impulse shopper. You continue to amaze and inspire me your courageous, quick-witted money-spending. Money mouth

Wow, I haven't sat on one before as the LBS doesn't keep one in the store.  However I think the 51 may be too big for me and from what you say it sounds like it will be.  I'd rather not go with the 48 as it comes with 650 wheels.

Anyway, congratulations.  As others have said, that's got to be the best impulse buys I've ever seen.  I'm sure you'll have many wonderful miles on her.

Sweet ride- it looks great w/those Zipp's.

 

Nora- Just 3.  1 MTB, 1 Road Bike, and now this one :-)  Although I'm sure my former Dual will be spending a fair amount of time at my place, as I threw in free bike maintenance as part of the deal.  Yeah....I'm a giver

That's not all you threw in...

Y'all, I wish you could have seen us driving home with that in the bike... me driving, him practically breaking his back he was twisted around so far just looking at the bike. It was very cute
