I ride but I gotta get a road bike. right now I'm using my Royce Union. Is a good bike just a bit heavy! Actually, getting out to do a short ride haven't ridden in quite sometime so not going to be a long ride at all!

I've got an old raleigh I drag out when I have visons of trying to recapture my glory daysof amatuer racing and a 28" waist, I was a ranked junior and an olympic hopeful. Now I am a fat old man.
Why didn't you just go the whole way and buy me a f@#king Kawasaki you bastards.

Way back when I was a pup (16-17) I used to put the hurt on the old guys in my club with a little bastard bike I built.

I ride a RANS rocket recumbent myself, and I'm doing a cruzebike conversion on a Wal-Mart moutain bike I have.  Since I've started riding 'bents I don't think I could ever ride a wedgie bike again

Just got a trek 1000 myself.  Its the lowest end of their road bikes but suited me just fine.  For under 500 bucks, I got a decent frame and pretty darn light weight with carbon seatpost and forks.  It is a nice riding bike with a bunch of trick little extras and I threw on a nice headlight, tail light, computer, couple of water bottles and some new tires. Got some shimano SPD pedals and the thing works like a charm.  The only thing I really want to upgrade is front deurailler (sp) and the shifters.
GS500E with a bunch of cool stuff!
