Big Felt guy. That TT bike looks dope!
Too really concerned with the Police here in Texas. The only time they stop cyclists is if they see you run red lights or stop signs.
This is also sound practice regardless of local law. A chain can break. And a rear wheel is limited in its braking force capacity by the loss of load as weight transfers forward during braking. There’s a reason many motorcycles have dual brake disks in the front.

No it’s for my hilly home terrain 
Just got fitted and picked up this baby today. Right now, the weather is terrible for road riding (much better to ride on the gravel bike with daily rain and temps around 2 C), so I’m looking forward to riding it outside (and finalizing the stem height and cutting down the unnecessary extension). Roadmachine = dreammachine.

Where did the Bianchi go? Also, that tarmac looks sick!
Went back with team Audi. The Bianchi wasn’t the right bike for me. Frame was too big and I wasn’t a fan of how it rode. Really love the Tarmac, probably my favorite bike for sure, and the Allez I used to have was amazing. So it made sense to trade the Bianchi for a disc Allez!
New gravel/adventure/wet day fun bike. Picture taken right outside the shop when I got her. It’s just like riding a 90s mtb only with brakes that work!
GRX drive-train, SDG cow saddle and hand built Miche wheels. Saddle is now less stumpy height and stem a bit lower but not cut yet.
And finally she’s really muddy after trying her mud capabilities, cross racers have mental skills I’ve come to the conclusion.

That looks like a slick machine! I really like Giant for their price point and value. Looks like a Dura Ace machine but ya got 105 on there, which is awesome. If I was illiterate I would be none-the-wiser

THAT is attractive.
I’d be in the market for one of those if not for our current…situation.

Decided to give outdoor workouts a try today. I got too excited by the sun and under dressed massively, but did manage to grab this photo during a rest interval.

I have the SL4 built up as a gravel bike (GRX groupset, etc.) and I love it!
This is a relief to me, because I had a Madone 9 for about 6 months and REALLY never got along with it. Sold it and got a TCR and now I’m ok for road racing.
Enjoy!

I’m probably miles off, but that looks like Belmont/ Rivington on IMUK course(?)

Since my A race is canceled and probably most for next few months, I might as well share my gravel bike I have been painstakingly dialing in over the last 2 months. Felt Breed. GRX. 11-46 cassette. Santa Cruz Reserve wheels.
