A good thread to read regarding the the joys of old steel 10 speeds vs modern carbon rigs. Lots of interesting opinions on both sides of the coin. A good discussion on where titanium fits into the equation. Had a great ride before work this morning on my Ti (Motobecane Le Chamion SL Ti). Beautiful, mild fall foliage time. It was a good reminder how comfortable a non-carbon modern bike with the feel of real metal, even if it's not steel and has STI shifters, can be.
