Picked up my new Hybrid today......
After my somewhat lengthly hybrid search and investigation, Monday I pulled the trigger, on what I feel is a good choice for me, a reasonability priced bike. A Specialized Sirrus Elite Disc.
Today, I picked up this two wheeled beauty.
Was up early, had cleared my schedule so I could go over first thing. Wanted to ride it back to the house but that would mean walking over...nah
As I walked in, the sales guy was pulling it down and rolled it to the back to finish the delivery prep. I asked him to add a rear rack and a couple of cages
Along with the better seat, I had chosen on Monday.
While I waited, I looked at helmets, gloves etc etc etc.......... Cha Ching cha ching....
I did leave with a nice Specialized Align helmet under my left arm while pushing the Sirrus with my right hand....... More items to come I've already decided. Lol
As i slid the the side door to the van open, I placed the papers inside and I just could not resist throwing a leg over an taking an easy cruise around the rather large parking lot.
WOW is all I can say, great choice !
And it was pouring rain when I got home..... Bummer.
Tomorrow, work early and home about 1-ish........ Then, yes, a nice little ride is in the cards......
Ok ok photos tomorrow !

Nice! I just bought a Trek Kaitai a few days ago. I definitely wanted to go accessory crazy when I was my LBS, but I think I restrained myself for the most part! Have fun on your first ride
