Those Cervelos look so nice.  A somewhat funny story.  I rode my Specialized Tarmac Comp with 105 components into work.  About 6 people were standing around talking about how nice my bike was.  While I stood there admiring another guy's Cervelo, which no one else seemed to even begin to notice. 
Here's to sweat in your eye

I don't think Cervelos have the "bling" factor they once had as a lot of other manufacturers have really elevated their game on the high end bikes.  Both the Specialized Transition, Scott Plasma, and Trek TTX are legit and are comparable to the P3C. 

But regardless, my P3C is my pride and joy for sure.  I have rode into work a few times and usually have a pretty good group of people asking me about it.

I'll probably buy an S1 this season or next.  Not that there is anything wrong with my Allez Elite, I just want a nice road bike to match my P3  ;)
