felt bikes?

**Alex** · 05-01-2007, 06:26 AM

FWIW, I test rode an F4 last November and my reaction was, "Eh." I wasn't in pain or anything. I just wasn't going to spend that kind of money on a bike unless it blew me away and was significantly better than my steel Paramount. Well, I then rode an F3C and fell in love. Go figure. I test rode Orbeas and Scotts and some other bikes and I kept coming back to the F3C. It is an incredible bike and I am a very happy woman.

I can't believe how well it climbs.

I test rode the felt again tonight, and love it as much as it I did on Sat, So.... I bought him!! Yipee!! I have taken tomorrow off from work so I can put some miles in! I am so excited! I traded out the saddle for a Terry and the pedals for spd. I am going to wait for the custom fit until I get used to the feel (only have experience on a hybrid) Here's to following passions, improving health and social life! Cheers, Trish

congrats on your new family member!

I see you are in Ct, are you close to the Western MA border, by any chance?

Hey Stella, actually I live very close to the MA border - but the other end - South of Palmer. I drive everywhere to ride though - today I rode with a friend down in Farmington!

not too far from where I stay during the school year (I'm east of Amherst).

I'm glad you got a ride in! as I was on my way to school (working on a paper due Monday), I saw plenty of cyclists out there. I was quite jealous

--it was a beautiful day to ride.

How's the new bike?
