love u too.....:wink_smile:

Hmmm - all this love, and no bike talk. :wink_smile:

I'm Lisa. I've been a year-round bike-to-work commuter - 3-5 days a week - for the last 12 years, anywhere from 30 to 16 miles round-trip - all road biking. I bought a beautiful new custom road bike last September that I love, but I haven't been riding a lot lately - I injured my hip in February, had surgery, had to be off the bike for about three months and it's been really slow getting back up to speed. Every time I ride for 3-4 weeks it seems like something else conspires to keep me off the bike for a month. So my beautiful bike is getting dusty!

My husband and I also ride a tandem - last year we went to Vermont and did a self-supported tour of the state, 400 miles in 10 days. Great fun!

I'm actually taking a mountain biking class this Saturday that should be ... interesting. :biggrin: I've mountain biked about 4 times in the last 6 months and it's fun, but my husband (who has been mtn. biking for at least 25 years) says he's not much of a teacher so I need to learn some mad skillz before I feel comfortable out there on my own.

Between the two of us we own eight bikes - I have two, we share the tandem, and he has FIVE. What is he doing right now? Tinkering with a bike. He's a bike geek, what can I say?! I'm just happy to have an in-house mechanic. :mellow:

What about you guys? What's in your stable?

hi Lisa!!!!!

WOW.....pretty impressive.....I have been watching the biking tours in Vermont, and would love to save money to be able to do that sometime in the next couple of years. I am from Indiana, so it will take me a little longer to get there, but would just love to be able to make it happen. I was actually thinking of planning a 20 year anniversery trip there.

Anyway...I started with a Trek hybrid in the summer of 2007....after I lost 100 i bought a trek 2100...she is pretttyyyyy....purple and silver specs...she shines in the sun...anyway.....

My husband rides a Giant road bike and our 14 year old currently is riding a trek fx...she is wanting a road bike for next season though, so we are planning on looking come feb

I think your commuting is awesome.....would love to be able to do that, but we live in the rural parts of Indiana and are about 45 miles from the base....allot of gravel roads....

But...we also have been talking about Mountain bikes.....Deanna that posted above ride them with her husband and loves them.....

Well...it was great that you posted...please dont be a stranger
