Saturday I ordered a Trek FX+ which is being delivered tomorrow at my LBS. I'm very excited to see how much this bike will extend my daily riding. I ride in a somewhat hilly rural area where the sight of a barn is much more common than that of a store. I've been riding my standard bike fairly regularly now for about a month but at no time have I exceed 20 miles. (youth you don't how good you've got it) I want to get in several rides before this coming Sunday when I take the bike on its first group ride, a pancake run. It's an all speeds ride of around 35 miles where we stop at the halfway mark for a pancake breakfast at the volunteer fire hall. It will also be interesting how the bike and I will be received. I did not receive any unfavorable comments when posting to their forum but I can't help feel a little like Im cheating.
