Looks like a nice ride! Some years ago I bought a Kestrel 200SCi secondhand, which one of these days I'm going to bring up from the basement and clean up to ride again. It has all Shimano 105 components and a Shimano 600 seat post. When I tune it up I'll replace the pedals and probably the seat but won't go wild.
It's a super light frame, just about picking it up with one finger, and it responds when I "say go". A real joy to ride along the country roads out here.
Mine looks kind of like this but with more conventional looking spokes. 54cm, black.
Review
Specs - mine's a 2003, with slightly different components
If you're ever going to be down this way, let me know and I'll have it ready for you to take it for a spin if you like.
