I have 4283.7 miles on the Denali so far.

See I went and got a MTB $399.00. But it was taking me 1 1/2 hours to get to work on it. Which gave me an average speed of 11.6 mph. It was too heavy and the shocks stole too much of my energy. So I went looking for a road bike. I found a 1989 Peugeot PB-14 for $10. Which was a really good deal since the Peugeot sold for $1999 in 1989. Then I could make it to work, 17.5 miles, in 52 minutes. On the Peugeot I had an average speed of 20.2 mph. That's a big difference on average speeds between the mountain bike and a good road bike. On the Denali I have a average speed of 20 to 22 mph.

And thanks for the Support Guy's. I knew I was going to take a lot a flack for this review.
