We Got Some Bikes

Well, I finally decided to quite smoking and start cycling again. I began to cycle about 10 years ago, but I got distracted with college, career, etc... so now I am back into it, and this time with my wife.

I pulled out my Cannondale R300 (CAAD2 Aluminum frame) from the attic after stashing it there 7 years ago... and I also bought a Scott Scale 70 Mountain Bike so I can try to kill myself out on the trails. MTB'ing is not my favorite thing in the world, but the exercise is good and I have a bunch of buddies that do it... so it is also a social thing, too.

Claudia refuses to do off-road riding (I don't blame her), so we got her a Bianchi Brava. This is an excellent bike for her to start with, and she rides it well. Once we get her trained a little more we'll move her up to a nicer lighter Bianchi... then she'll be kicking my ass. ;)

More to come...
