Since announcing his win a few weeks ago, Adrian Tesoriero has been in hiding … too excited to venture out in public … and struggling to live with a face that knows only how to smile.

The bike has had the new Dura-Ace D12 electronic shifting gear installed. “This will sort them out” says Adrian … “I am going to look hot on this thing … just look how well it goes with my Rode Duivels Team Lycra”.

“The revolutionary Dura-Ace Di2 electronic shifting option with SEIS (Shimano Electronic Intelligent System) takes the already superior Shimano shifting performance to a whole new level never seen before. The increased accuracy, smoothness and reliability of electronic shifting makes gear changes faster and virtually eliminates missed shifts.” says Durace Australia

The question for all of us will be:

1. will this new toy make Adrian faster on and off the road ?
2. will the technology grant Adrian the ability to win one of our much coveted competition jersey’s ? OR
3. will the new bike simply allow Adrian to brag about having the latest and greatest bike on the road ?

Only time will tell … but from where I stand, Adrian is (thanks to Bike Bug) the happiest bloke on 2 wheels … and if that is where Adrian’s dream was to finish, he would still be a winner.

Congratulations mate … a great bike has gone to a great bloke and at a great home. Enjoy the new toy and I look forward to seeing you on the road … out in front … and driving the peloton until the cows come home.
