Today my RANS Stratus XP was purchased 7

My '06 retun to Fayetteville, NC from Richmond, VA ~ Tour #3 for the year

Thanks to BROL that identified a potential buyer to me and to Michele for taking custody of a wonderful bike. We had many happy miles together and many pictures to show for it.

My flickr pictures will remain, as will my BLOG posts relating to my purchase and various setups of this amazing cycle.

I have a front wheel to be built because I will use my SON Hub on my quadricycle. Woodie, the lead mechanic at my LBS will build that wheel and pack & ship the bike to Michele. I hope it will be on its way next week. It goes to my LBS Thursday.

She will leave me stripped for the most-part. The Ergon MP1 [now GP1] grips, 2 mirrors, and the kickstand go with the bike.

Here is a more stripped picture. I will post another [separate article] just before packing. This is kind of sad. Hurry Fargo…

Many of you know my Magnificent 7 [now the Sensational 6 ~ same link].

During the spring, the number of cycles in my stable are likely to [will hopefully] be reduced to four: my CT700—Silk; my RANS Citi Crank Forward—Faye; my Velokraft VK2; and my Trek Project One. Add Fargo—my quad to those four and we have the Fabulous Five or Fab Five. Money-wise, I think better than the Elite-Eight. My RANS Stratus XP may soon be out of the door. If you have an interest in my  Trek 5200 Road Bike or Trek Y-22 MTB, please let me know. I’d like to see them gone before the end of April 2010. Thanks! –jim
