    Welcome to the wild and wonderful world of cross.

    You have different lovers to fulfill different needs. At certain points in the season you'll spend more time with one than the others. And at other points that will change. They'll all understand.

    BTW, I have way too many bikes. I see my coaching clients in my home (where all my bikes are stored). One of the most frequent questions I get is "which one's your favorite?" I don't have a favorite, but if I only had one bike it would be a cyclocross bike. A cross bike will do just about everything (except the track and maybe not time trials). But, I can ride trails, keep up with the roadies, commute, tour, you name it!

    Congratulations on your new Lemond!!!

    So, if your road bike is roadie and your mtn bike is rocky, what will you name your cross bike?

    Well, Roadie got tagged without really getting to know her and Rocky got tagged as soon as I got dumped the first time over the bars- And she can climb. I will have to get to know the cross bike before naming her.

    And I completely understand about 'favorites'- The question I like is "Do you like Road riding or mountain biking better?" They are so different that it is impossible for me to compare the two. I love them both for what they are!
    The best rides are the ones where you bite off much more than you can chew--and live through it.
