First of all thank you to the guys/gals who started this mssg. board. The info is invaluable. I have purused the board for years and love looking at all the info on bike, drivetrain, etc. I live in Phoenix, AZ and actively race Cat 4 in the local Criteriums and the occasional road race. I am originally from San Diego and started racing bikes in BMX in the mid 80s. It is a very addictive sport! I currently ride a 2009 Giant TCR advanced SL with Ultegra. It is a very fun bike. More later but for now a hearty hello to everyone!

Welcome on board !
Tcr advance sl is a nice place to start from, i believe the german tour magazine listed it in there top 3 carbon frames
