Thanks for your advice awhile back on sizing bikes. My husband and I bought these a few weeks ago. I can't speak for him but I am very much enjoying myself! We've only done minor off road so far... we're trying to build up our stamina and muscles on some paved trails as well. This weekend will be our first long off road experience (long for us anyway!)

I'm going to attempt to post photos here. The Giant is Bob's and the Trek is mine. I would have liked a Giant but the smallest frame still didn't feel right to me (although the bike seemed better over all). Anyway... thanks for the help and the bike trail links too :)

I'm sure you'll have a great time.

Just think of the fun you'll have getting them looking that clean when you get back from the ride ;)

Seriously, enjoy them :)

Looks like you got some really good bikes.My motherinlaw and sisterinlaw both have the same trek(different color though).They really like it.Trek and giant make really good bikes and give good bang for the buck. Enjoy them.And yeah they look a little to clean;)

Hey XTA, my wife and I are heading to Lakeland - Carter Road Park on Saturday afternoon. Planning on getting there around 4:30 - 5:00 to do one quick loop in the twilight hours, hang out, eat something and then do a night ride!

Maybe you can come over from O-Land and meet us!

PM me if interested!

Oh yeah, congrats on the bikes! They look good! You dun good der laddie!
