Finally our tax returns are in progress. With that I can finally afford to buy my own road bike and with the upcoming MS150 ride, a good comfortable road bike was what I was looking for. Enter the Specialized Roubaix - it is the distance bike of choice. The Roubaix takes its name for the Paris - Roubaix race held every spring. This race is notorious for its riding over cobblestones - which is very punishing on most road bikes.
At any rate I had been looking at a 2011 Specialized Roubaix Comp, but happened to stop by AJ's and saw they had a 2010 Roubaix elite - which is aside from a slight change in frame material, is the exact same bike but for almost $1000 less.
Here are some pictures of it:
