It’s been a long winter already . . . The trainer you bought in the fall 6 years ago still sits, with the warranty card still dangling from it. You spend much of your free time now on Bike Forums, or sinking deeper into the couch watching “I Love Lucy” reruns, eating and drinking heavily. Sure, you’ve packed on a few pounds, but you swear you’ll shed them when you’re back on the saddle again!

OR - You’ve been battling the frigid cold, snow, salt, and ice, rutted roads, re-freeze and road spray all winter long on your trusty winter beater, and the neighbors are convinced that you lost your driver’s license.

All the while, your beautiful steeds have been kicking at their stalls, and chomping at the bit, waiting to be sprung from your garage in the spring.

- And on those long dark winter’s evenings, you stare at them longingly, anticipating the day when you can really ride them again. . . .

( Time passes )

- Spring has sprung! – The robins are chirping, and the crocus’ are blooming. - But suddenly, you realize that you are being confronted with a terrible, weighty decision!

“Which one should I ride on the first clear day of spring?”

- So which one will it be, buckaroo?

- Make your decision now, and post it here - IF you dare!
