The floating pier is not level, and there's a distracting speedboat in the background. Come back in 4 years and try again.

Btw, that's Haliburton, Ontario. Fabulous riding area. Quiet lakes.

Beautiful bike! I bet it's amazing to ride :)

Now, if you really want to be picky (sorry) see rule 45. http://www.velominati.com/the-rules/
From the photo, it appears you may have ~10mm spacers ontop of the stem?
I would be in an urge to cut it down to 5mm and be compliant with rule 45.

Since you asked....again, mostly kidding. Congrats on an awesome bike.

I love you guys - truly - the perfect discussion tone for an RCA - Made my day.
BTW Beeatnik - as an ignorant foreigner wouldn't the number of stars on the National Champs jersey make it around 1776 era? Old cyclists never die!

dadoflam08, our National Champs (on my rides at least) earn their jerseys on the track. So, they tend to be "amateurs." Although the guy in the pic can outsprint a pro on a good day:

Wow; let me go get my popcorn. 8)

Lots of sarcasm here, but I am pretty sure not all of it is.

Much respect on the RCA frame; nothing wrong with a little bling. Enjoy the bike and don't mind the haters.

Beautiful build!

I am not sure what's wrong with saddle.

Come back with actual weight, with pedals.
