One's a trek 1500 road bike, 650 wheels, spare mavic helium front wheel, full shimano 105 9 speed triple. (that's upgraded from the specs for the 2004 model). Carbon fiber front fork. Some scratches on it. I bought it off ebay and just didn't like the fit. I'm not sure if it's a wsd, but it does have a short top tube.
The other's a trek 14" 6700 wsd mountain bike, rockshox judy front fork, 2002 I think (could be wrong). Full deore with a deore lx rear derailleur. I bought it from some woman who'd rode it only a couple of times on road only, and I rode it on my bf's "baby trails" twice and then got the titanium litespeed mountain bike which is a bit cushier of a ride.
So... I've been thinking that I really don't need 3 road bikes and 2 mountain bikes, so those 2 have to go. 2 road bikes I can justify.Last edited by Cataboo; 10-24-2008 at 01:15 PM.

You need a real road bike.

Start fillin' up that place with bikes. DB and I will show you The Way!
Oh....and while my vet's kid won't go Ivy League, DH and I have certainly been contributing to their college fund ourselves lately....
Oh...and again...we'll have to get a TE Mtb ride together soon. DB can teach us what she learned. I can show y'all how to crash. It'll be great fun!Last edited by 7rider; 10-24-2008 at 04:53 PM.

I don't ride a lot of road. I don't ride a lot of mountain. I also don't have much money or storage space. So, one bike that can handle a little of everything makes sense to me.
I hope the buns are ok!"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter.

Aw, poor Noah
I certainly hope there won't be any weird side effects from that hormone treatment.
I've got my fingers crossed for good weather on Thanksgiving day. It'd be great to anniversary our Rosey ride from last year, if everyone's schedules permit."How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road?

The bike I bought from F8th is very much like Catriona's (trunk rack photo).
If you can ride Rosaryville on a cross bike I can do it on that.2008 Trek FX 7.2/Terry Cite X

I'm guessing noone's going to convince me to buy a cyclocross bike on here.
And apparently I had no idea what went into raising bunnies.
