My buddy is MAJOR cyclist. 60 mile on Sat am kind of stuff. I do believe I'd dig that. IT's funny...still looking for that "release" I had as a child. He's gonna borrow a bike from a friend to see if I enjoy the road type. I want the road to work.
I'm taking my time, but on a beautiful day like today, SOMETHING NEW inside me wants to get out and turn some tires on some pavement. Must be the lil boy in me stirring up.
Welcome to BF.
If you really want to drool, drive down the road a few miles to Chattanooga and look at the Litespeed and Merlin bikes. They will definitely convert you to being a roadie.
