    I sold my road bike.

    I sold my beautiful Trek 1000 tonight. She went to a good home but I'm still sad. Of course it was my choice. I listed it for a good price and the right person came along.

    Now if I can just find a way to get across the USA and get my hands on Elk's Aurora.

    because, because, because

    Too many bikes and I'm trying to simplify. But, I may want to do something different. I think instead of a road bike, I want something with more of a touring geometry. I've always wanted the Aurora, but they don't sell them anywhere close to me.

    I'm going to take my time and decide. I'm keeping Blossom, so I can still ride.

    i like the idea of simplifying. that is why I ride bikes. no car insurance, no gas fill ups, no car accidents. simple.

    I know the feeling but I seem to be moving in the opposite direction.

    I just put a down payment on this bike today.

    It's gonna be my canal bike. It was so sexy, all black with "Trek" outlined in pink.
    Only $350 , '07 closeout.

    I'll keep the Perfomance bike I got from F8th for anyone who wants to ride with me but has no canal bike.

    the mixte was going to be my town bike but this one will make a good town bike too.

    Now for the confession -
    I may have to sell the mixte

    Oh Zen you'll love that bike. It's really smooth. If I didn't already have one (even though it's 6000 km away) I probably would buy another one!

    I asked my friend yesterday if she wanted to "borrow" my Dolce for a little while. I want to see what it will be like without her. Baby steps.

    Zen, that looks like a great bike. You won't have top tube problems with that one!

    I had a Trek 1000 as my first road bike - and every once in a while I still get to visit him. He is sitting in a friend's garage in California - never hardly being ridden.
