My two wheeled passions. They are very similar in color and both models have an interesting history. My Triumph 900 that has been ridden many miles and my new Lemond Alpe that will soon have many miles on it too......Jim

Hi everyone , i am a new member to the forum.
Master racer cat 3 -53 y/old (next month). I live in Wenatchee WA, and it's snowing.... |
Hi Musher and welcome. What do you race on? Any Pics?
Today was the first time I saw the sun in...well, along time! |
Been commuting since 2001 to downtown Seattle, and in the last 1.5 years have finally made it all year round due to horrible traffic. It's so much more fun to ride than pretty much any other method - other than my motorcycle, which I also do. But my bike is free (sans maintenance of course!). I'm riding a Gary Fischer Kai Tai right now, used to ride a Bridgestone MB3, but wore that one out. I'm now looking into getting a Cyclocross next year. The Gary is not so comfy day in and day out although it handles wet weather well. This looks like a pretty good group of people overall - :beer:

Edgewood Washington here, its near the city that non Washingtonians can't pronounce. Puyallup. Edgewood the town of many hills ,steep and lots of rollers, i commute 15 miles to Kent for work on the Interurban on my Surley Cross rain bike. i think i know every rabbit on a personal basis on the trail, and have just about ran over each of them at least once. Got to love bikes when the price of fuel is worth more than gold. I love watching the poor souls stuck on 167 when i ride past them in the morning.

Ride hard,Musher I have an R1000 cadd 8 which is my regular ride and now in the process of rebuilding my old hand built racer from '88. I also have a Giant VT1 when I want to play in the dirt. That VXRS is a serious build. Get some pics up here and in road cycling. I think the drool factor will be 10/10 |

Are you going to do the North Bend to Tekoa in one day (just joking!)?
That sounds like a grand adventure! East Hill |

I've got to have something to think about while I'm on that thing.
A week would be about 40 miles per day, which would be doable, but ten days is probably better if you want to enjoy the ride. East Hill |
Northwest Native. First 35 years in Seattle, last 12 in Portland. Racer in my own mind. Mostly long distance rider. Born again tourist.
|
Just moved back to Seattle after nearly a decade in UT, PA, AK and the UK, currently in a temporary place in Shoreline and will start commuting to Greenlake from here. Riding to lose the beer gut, save gas and save the world. And also to just have some quieter, slower mornings.
I'm just starting out - haven't biked in a decade, but some new friends here are also convincing me and the wife to do the STP this summer...hope I'm ready for it! |
Hello - I live in Fife/Tacoma Washington and work in Seattle. That darn commute:cry:
|
Hi karlkras, Athanasius, and fujiroad73, glad to have you all join us here!
East Hill |
Normally I live in Salem, possibly moving to McMinville, but for this winter I'm down in Arizona. I'll be back in the great Northwest this spring and living in Salem.
I race a little bit, mostly due to not having enough time in my schedule to do so, and I love just getting out there and riding the road. |
I'm in Pullman, Washington (Go Cougs!); daughter of aRoudy1. My husband and I are "amateur" riders, having gotten new Trek 2700s for Christmas '06.
I mostly take advantage of the rails-to-trails networks, though ride to work when I feel brave enough to tackle the Palouse hills! |
New to the forum. I'm in se portland and ride road and commute.
