Capital Gravel Road Racer

Last week I posted a teaser for pics of my friend Craig's Capital gravel road bike, but was waiting for Craig to fill me in on all the details before posting full photos. I'm tired of waiting, so here without further ado is Craig's Capital which was tailor made for the gravel road riding he does in Vilas County Wisconsin every summer.

Rando, Rivendell, and tweed nerds be jizzin'

I believe the word you're searching for is bagoo
(bagoo is the sound nerds make when jizzin, to say it properly you need to sink your head into your neck, get red faced and blurt it out)
