OH! what to buy?

[ridebikeme]

SHEFLY: Sounds like you have something to look forward to!!

More than likely, I've decided that I'm going to buy a Charge as well. I just has some new windows installed in the shop, so once I receive an invoice for the balance, we'll see how much is left over.

I too, own 5 Cannondales, although one is a frame that is waiting its owner to build HA!

How was your race this weekend?

[SheFly]

DebSP - Thanks! And send whatever you don't want our way . Looking forward to trying something new. I'm used to riding in the winter, and in the snow, but the purpose built bikes seem like they will be a hoot!

Ridebikeme - You should tell the bike's owner to get on that Hoping to spend a significant amount of time in Maine this winter - we will definitely need to connect for a ride at some point! We're heading up tomorrow for the week - heard talk of some snow... The races yesterday were awesome, but hard! Very technical terrain for a CX race. Did the Women's 1/2/3 first, and then, just because I am a sucker, lined up for the SSCX race as well . DH won back to back 1/2/3 and SSCX races. I podiumed in the first race, and "won" the women's SSCX race. It was a good day!

Shefly: Sounds like the two of you had a very successful and FUN weekend!!

Yes, you're right the owner should get on with building that frame HA! Right now, it's all about putting the shop back together and finishing up a couple of small projects. You know how that is....
Yes, I had we may receive a bit of snow, although the report I heard snow in the mountains, perhaps your report is a bit more current than mine. Either way, it will be fun.

Yes, we should defintiely get together and do a ride at some point. Here's hoping to a winter with lots of snow, so we have to make the difficult decision of whether to " ride or ski". HA!

Enjoy your week here!!

Well now look what you've done SheFly! I was talking to my husband about my indecision about what to buy: a fat tire bike or upgrade my mountain bike in the spring. And I told him about you and your husband getting fat tire bikes for the winter etc. Out of the blue he says he thinks that might an idea for us. I never asked him before and just assumed he would not be interested. So now I am swinging back to fat bikes! We are going to look at Pugsleys this week and see if it is something he might like. Actually it might help me decide if he is going to get a winter bike as well. So maybe it is a blessing because I am horrible at making decisions! Enjoy your bikes!

They certainly are lot of fun!! Is there any place where you could go and ride one first? I will tell you this, mine arrived this week, and I haven't been so excited for a new bike in a very long time. Now that doesn't mean that I don't love all of the bikes that I do have, but this is different.... right SHEFLY?LOL

[SheFly]

Oh yes - just call me SheFly, the Enabler!

Get the fat bikes - you will love them! We don't have snow here yet, and I've only had the bike two weeks, but I already have 50 miles over a half dozen rides on it . It does take some getting used to in the handling, but they are certainly fun. And like ridebikeme, I don't remember being this excited about a new bike in a long time either!

Hey ridebikeme - Nor'Easter predicted Weds next week. I'm in Bethel and NOT working. We might have to ride...
