I'm a bit outside of Chicago, and just like with my kids I love road and off road equally . I've had loads of rides thru the years. But my current lineup includes a Cannondale F700 which seems to finally be "THE ride" for me! It suits my riding style and fits me better than any other MTB bike I ever owned (a bunch). I have a fixed gear bike that I built up of spare parts and I commute in the warmer weather and do base training miles on it. The newest addition to the collection is my soon to arrive Pinarello Opera. Then theres that S&M BMX bike that I mess around with when I'm around the house 
I also have a Miyata MTB tandem thats got way to much dust on it!
nice to meet ya!

Nice to hear about another C'Dale rider. I've currently got an F2000SX that is a great bike. My wife has a Raven and an R4000. My road bike is LeMond Zurich.
BTW, I work Saturdays at a local shop that's a C'Dale dealer.
To coin an old NASCAR phrase, "Race it on Sunday, Sell it on Monday!"
Any pics of your bikes? I'd like to see your Pinnarello. Sweet bike!
