I went from a 38lb Wally MTB to a 27lb Trek hybrid. It was like getting out of an
SUV and getting in a Ferrari. Not just the weight, but the feel. The MTB had slicks
and that really helped, but the loose of over ten lbs was unbelievable. My average
speed jumped about five MPH, and my distances nearly doubled.

When I was near 300lbs, twenty miles was a big deal., now at 220lbs, fifty is just an
outing.
