I rode with some of our esteemed riders this weekend, on my Heavy as H*** hybrid...I kept up a steady 10-11 mph over a flat 35 miles. I'm dead! I *know* that the road bike to be will make for a much more comfortable ride. Sadie Kate reminded me that while I'd been riding along in basically one positon, she'd been changing position frequently.

Get the road bike! Your body will thank you!

(now...the Trek 1500 WSD? or the Specialized Dolce Elite? or....? So many bikes and only a studio apartment!)
