My new slogan is going to be "A girl can never have too many bikes". The temps hit 70 in Wisconsin today and I am loving it. I have a kayak hanging in the garage that might just find its way into the river this weekend. Since I do not have a picture of the Vita to post here is a link to one just like mine <g>.

I'm so glad you're loving your Vita! Mine is exactly the same, with silver colour rack and fenders and 35mm CrossRoads tyres. I did have a Charge Ladle saddle on it to begin with, but have swapped that out for a Selle Italia Diva Gel Flow, and the ride is even smoother now. Nearly 4 months now, and I still can't ride to ride her. She goes in for a check-up service next week. I think the Marin is going to be sold - I barely ride that bike now.
