Not to upstage sh00K on his momentous day for bringing home the 7.7FX. Finally got motivated to show my new '09 TREK 7.6FX with new grips (Ergon GC3's), new saddle (Terry Liberator Y GEL) and a new CATEYE V2C. I wanted a rear mount wireless computer with cadence for eventually running on a trainer when the snow gets here. Sorry for some blurry pics. I am a lousy photographer.






This was my reading from last ride. I cue off maintaining a good cadence. Here the avg was 84 RPM. Total dist 23 miles avg speed 13.9. Nothing to brag about but with 3 weeks of riding under my belt, it felt pretty comfortable.


These have made a big difference for hand comfort.




This has helped as well along with some decent bike shorts.


This damper and the blue paint was the main reason I decided to move up to a 7.6. I wanted skinnier tires, higher pressure rating and I think this equalizes those out to give a smooth ride. I will say after riding my wife's 7.5 FX with the wider, lower pressure tires, the rides are about equal.




Not bike related, but this is my other hobby a.k.a "Addiction"
