    You're not alone. I've had my hybrid (though a Cyclocross geared bike--Specialized TriCross) for a few months and already want a 'real' road bike. I've put skinny road tires on and that helped quite a bit. I'd suggest trying new bars on your bike to see if that helps.

    Meanwhile, save up for a road bike. Me, I'm saving up for something like a Specialized Ruby or similar. Maybe around bonus time next year

    Saraspins: Your experience mirrors my own. I had a Trek FX for about a month before I decided to buy a roadbike. I never road the FX again. There was nothing wrong with the bike; I just much preferred my roadbike for the kind of riding that I do.

    That was in 2006. I'm now riding a custom road bike that I bought this past March. A friend of mine has the FX. I still have my first road bike. I'm thinking about changing her into a singlespeed.
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
