Happy trails........

Thanks George! I really am amazed at this thing. I am off on monday an the rain is to stop Sunday night! Sweet!I Did on my ride and have been looking back over the posts here. Glad I didn't make the mistake of returning the bike. Thanks again for your help. Yes the lbs here is really good. Same chain I bought my mtb from. This one is only 3/4 of a mile away. Thats good and not good at the same time!LOL

Hi all! Did 42.46 miles today on the new bike! SOOO happy I kept this bike. She hit 41mph on a nice straight downhill run! Pretty scary! But at the same time you know you are alive!Here are some new pics of it on the road!

Yea,that's kinda crazy in a metro area,isn't it? It is not a bad trail but the need a little paving done. Guess we should be glad it is even there. This county is a bit anti bike but they are coming around.
Was a good day but I am still trying to figure out how you get a headwind both ways?

What a nice bike, is that the latest one? I want to return back when I'm still age of 20 and try to ride that wonderful bike.

Hi Joe it is a 2012/13, I couldn't afford it when I was 20 so here I am today at 56 pretending to be 20!LOL It is a joy to ride and handles like it is on rails! Right pretty also! It was one of those "I can't walk away from it" things!
