    It's beautiful. I hope to see it in person some time soon! Enjoy!
    I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

    It's awesome!

    (and if by remote chance that's Greenbelt Lake, you're *really* keeping up with the Geonzes...)

    Let us know if/how it grows on you

    Well...it handles and climbs great. I rode it into the office today to drop off a cake (bungeed to the back skateboard top). I really like the way it rides. Getting up the big hill near my house was no problem, even loaded with two huge bags full of groceries.

    However, I got caught in the rain coming out of Whole Foods, completely unprepared--no rain jacket, nothing but the cotton t-shirt and capri pants I was wearing. The temperature had dropped about 10 degrees, and it was miserable. I decided to take Metro home, but the damn bike wouldn't fit in the Metro elevator! So I had to ride home in the rain.

    I know it's not the bike's fault it's too big for the elevator, but I was a little annoyed anyway.

    Might be able to figure out a way to pop the wheel off? Maybe on the Yahoo Group somebody might have an idea?
