Jesse, with the caveat that I've hardly ridden the thing at all yet so (leaving 
shortly to fix this today):

The bike came to me set up this way, it was Candice's ride, we're about the 
same height. My impression is the cockpit was arranged to be ridden mostly on 
the tops with full access to hoods, braking and shifting from there. It's very 
unusual and I never would have thought of it myself, but I'm a hoods rider 
myself so I was really drawn to the idea. There's virtually no access to the 
brakes from the drops, that seems to be a position solely for getting down out 
of the wind and cranking on the pedals. I think of it like the P Touring bars 
on Bromptons where all the controls are up top and you have an "aero" bailout 
down low. This of course could be changed by simply rotating the drops down, 
but I don't think Candice designed it for that and I'm not interested, either. 

I'll report back after I've actually ridden long enough to get sore and tired, 
and give feedback on the bar situation then.
