It pays to be short as I got a great end of season deal on it. Hubby came home with a new mtb too. (I went into the shop looking for a new biking jacket)
That's a nice bike. I keep that one over on the other side of the state - it rolls right over the juniper roots and the lava rock on the trails. This one is a full suspension and is so much smoother on the terrain over on this side of the state.

Specialized really fits me better than Trek does, but I do have a Trek MTB hard tail that I love for gravel roads.
