I went camping with my family this weekend and brought the new Giant Kronos with me. It was begging me to stretch its legs and so I did with a couple of 10-15 mile rides :) I grabbed the camera on the last ride this morning so that I could capture the beauty of the day!

It was absolutely beautiful weather for cycling. Sunny and 70s. I was also able to get a better idea of what kind of average speed I can maintain and wowzer. On the way out I was keeping my speed above 20mph the whole time, sometimes going along at a good clip at 26mph at a sustainable effort level. On the way back, I kept it a bit slower but found it difficult to not give it a decent amount of effort (the riding position forces me to give it a little more than on the other bikes I have).
I love this bike!
