Now that I've grown up and I am riding big boys bikes with 700c wheels instead of 26" wheeled mountain bikes converted for road use I've come to realize just how awesome cross bikes are for city riding. I love not having to worry about the terrain, I can just tear it up with speed. Too much fun!!.

What are you riding? I always thought a cross bike was a 29'r with room to spread out on.
