Had to finish the brake job on the big steel beast this morning so I didn't get to bike in until 11:00. Weather was in the upper 70's and heading for 80 F. Beautiful ride. My knee was bugging me a bit (recently adjusted the seat) so I stopped and played with a few adjustments on my seat. I ordered a new bike yesterday too since my old 12 speed seems to not have many parts available anymore. I invested in a Mercier Corvus. It seemed like a good deal so I went for it. Should arrive at the Bike Shop on monday. I have never owned a late model new road bike so I am excited to get it and ride a "real" bike (not that there is anything wrong with older bikes mind you, I just haven't owned any brand spanking new ones yet.). Goodby having to bend down to shift a downtube shifter!
