My first FNL post. Kinda feel like a freshman walking onto the varsity field, but here goes.
This is a road bike that I'm donating to the youth triathlon team that I help coach. Built on a 650c wheel size, it maintains "normal" proportions for short (think: young) riders.
This graphic is the runic spelling of the Norwegian word "verdig", which means "worthy". I put it on the top tube to remind the rider, when they're hanging their head about to give up, that they're WORTHY of staying in the fight.
A shot of it fully built up. The idea is that if a kid joins the team but doesn't have a road bike yet, they could use this one until they do. Or it can be used as a loaner in the case of crash damage.
Some are born to move the world to live their fantasies...
