My Take
What happens when your wife's association decides to re-do their three-year-old website?
Rice-boys take note. Your "looks-like-it-came-from-a-salvage-yard" hood is no match for an entire bike made out of carbon fiber.

Easily the most surreal part of the ride. My Cypress's handlebars were completely out of view. This thing is like steering a ram back and forth. A really light, really twitchy, really fast ram. Lord only knows what the pure racing versions are like.
