From Dallas Texas
Hi all. I bought a Trek 700 Multitrack a few months ago to ride around the neighborhood with my wife. She quickly lost interest but I have found biking to be a fun way to get good exercise.
So now, as I try to figure out how to make this old bike more pleasurable, I have found myself here.
I'm off to figure out how to change from combo grip shifters and brake levers to trigger shifters...

Welcome from another N.Texan! I live in Bowie and work in Fort Worth. I am just getting back into riding after years of wishing I had time. I decided to make time and am enjoying it. Out of shape and getting along in years but having a blast. My oldest son has decided to join me and that makes it so much better. Enjoy your bike an watch the heat!
