Without drilling, I'm hard-pressed for alternatives. I'll be on the sidelines listening for tips with keen interest. Hope you get it worked out.

Interesting, I think I've seen this a few times on some mountain bikes. Are you saying drill a hole in the front and back and run the cable inside, through the frame?

Yes. I've seen this done a lot for both aero and aesthetic purposes over the years - frames and handle bars. Hopefully, the person (shop) doing the drilling has an understanding of the frame's (and/or bar's) integrity.

That was exciting to watch. I'd need to make a whole lot of runs before hittin' that! After missing a year of cycling, I'm just focused on riding that White Line on the edge of some narrow roads without being forced off by drivers. When I observe some of the motorists as they pass, some of them look as if they'd run me over if it weren't for witnesses! (like that would really stop some of them...)

  What, because they had to slow for a few seconds?!

Route ~
 
That's some good looking country, though Cyclecross hasn't pulled me in yet. I'd be interested in pouring my soul all over that asphalt.

I've been road biking since this summer and joined my school's bike club. Our club gets a really good discount at a local bike shop on trek bikes/bontrager gear a couple of times each year. The order has to be in 2 weeks from now. 
 
I am looking to get a nice full suspension mountain bike. I want a good all round bike that I could possibly use to race with in the future. I am limited to trek. Does anyone has suggestions?
