Well I rode my bike to work today which was my first real "ride" on my new Talon... I was absolutely giddy when I arrived at work :) Something about doing 40 mph on a bicycle... (yes it was downhill but exhilerating none-the-less ;) ). The real challenge is going home... All uphill :( It's only 6 miles but it's a grind for someone not in shape (me).
Anyway, my new bike hauls some serious a$$ without much effort so I'm very pleased with my decision. We'll see how she climbs in a little while as I'm still stuck at work (I guess I should be working?... Naaahhhhh).
WOW! You do a 6 mile hill 5 days a week, and you'll be in great shape in nothing flat!
Just keep 'em spinning and you'll do fine!

I'm still kickin'! Wasn't as bad as I expected. Only averaged 10 mph but I made it just fine :) Legs feel pretty damned good today too!
