I have read all through this forum and have picked up a lot of great tips. Thanks to all of you. I just bought an older Giant Perigee road bike. I want to try it out and see if I need to visit my local bike dealer and pick me up a new bike. I know this bike I have isnt anything like what is out there but can anyone tell me anything about the Perigee bike that I have?

well, its a hybrid.. Its geometry is suited for a more upright position..
You can even use it for cyclocross.

I have read good reviews on that frame... durable..
