I used to show up here fairly regularly a few years ago. Had a Trek Pure that I loved riding but did not so much love hiking up to my 3rd floor walk up apartment. So I got a Bike Friday NWT (which is on the for sale forums). I got injured (colitis, then plantar fasciitis) and haven't been doing much of any riding. Of course on one ride I did on the Friday in May I wiped out big time and it put an extra fear regarding biking. UGH.

My PF is simply not healing, so running (and even walking distances) are not options for me right now. I need to start exercising again and hope to take the Friday out today. I got the seatpost shortened at the LBS a few days ago because I need to have some more security at starts and stops with feet being able to touch the ground. I am going to keep the Friday up for sale but if there are no takers I'll just keep riding her. I don't need a folder now because I don't live in a walk up anymore and am buying a house in which there will be no stairs at all to hike with the bike. Heck, my new house a short bike ride or walk to work, so there is a good excuse to get pedaling, right?

Plus, I prefer flat foot geometry and my Friday doesn't fit on my bike trainer (things I wish I knew before I bought it - and of course wish I knew I wouldn't be in that darn walk up as that was the biggest issue).

Anyway, long story short, am posting here so that I do indeed get my butt out the door this afternoon and make myself ride. If I post it publicly somewhere, then I won't chicken out.
