So this thing has been thing has been in my life for a long time.It has recently found a new life with some drop bars.
then I had a little problem, but thanks to TT and ask the community here on FG SS I found a replacement.
I have been using it on the trainer when I can find daylight to ride
The boss has other plans for it and thinks I need a training partner.

go fast:
go faster:
go not quite as fast but usually have more fun:
The Giant rides immensely better than the Specialized which generally handles like crap. It's the nicest (road) machine I've ever owned by a long shot.

Nin'er, I don't even know 'er...yuck yuck yuck!
That is a sweet lookin' ride there (minus points for misaligned wheels and cranks) and those Bridgestones above were quite nice as well. But @TMonk: what is with the chains not being in the largest chainring smallest cog and the pedals being at odd angles and the valve stems are not a noon or at least lined up

Nice, I like! How is cycling home after a camping trip? I'm usually exhausted by the end of camping, and the last thing I would want to do is ride home. I'm sure its gratifying though!
P.S. The crustpunk.com sticker gave me a chuckle. Not hating, I love all forms of punk / hardcore, just a little out of place I guess

It was just under 60km each way so it wasn't so bad and I had a full week in between. Glad I didnt do it fixed like I originally intended to. As for the sticker, It looks like such a mom bike I had to do something silly. It's like putting a Discharge bumper sticker on a minivan.

New (used) bike day for me. Haven't gotten it dialed in yet, but I snapped a quick picture before it went totally dark.
