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.

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.

I loooove my 'cross bike. If you're in the market for one, I'll happily extol it's virtues for you
Just don't expect it to handle trails like Herrington Manor."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. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."

I can't really justify one - although there's a number of roads around Frederick that they've gravel chipped instead of actually repaving and it'd be nice to not have to avoid them.

I have a spare set of road wheels that I'm using for my trainer for now and was going to use them for my commuter/beater when I get a frame for it - so I think I'll just put a wider tire on those if I ever want something more cross like.
