Cannondale. Buy quality, and buy American, you get what you pay for.

hauling the bike around in a truck doesn't qualify as puttin' miles on it.

Actually when I do ride, I ride my daughters. Cuts down on the rackage. Really I am just too cheap to get my own.

Now I want to go buy a new one. I think there's a trek dealer just around the corner.

I sold my Trek in 96 to pay for a summer class, stupidest decision I've ever made. Then about a year or so later when I got my first real job after graduation, I bought a Cannondale, I sold that last year at a garage sale. Looking back, I really wish I had either one of those bikes back.

Did you sell it with the basket and bell?

I have a Diamondback bike that I've only used for road riding. I'm thinking of selling it and buying a road bike with a kiddie trailer.

I'll get back to you when I get home. I bought it from my friend's brother and it was apparently well over $1000 new.

I have that bike! Got it on sale for $250 in 2004. Unfortunately I lent it to a friend that lost his license and returned it in less than stellar condition. Sad


mountain bike - Wiener Poopie - 08-25-2008

I can


mountain bike - dino - 08-25-2008

It works just fine for me. I'm no hard core mountain biker by any means but it gets me where I want to go. I haven't been able to get it cleaned up since he returned it to me last fall. I really need to get on that.

I'm not sure how I got that good of a deal. It was a sale at the Village bike shop on 44th & Kalamazoo near GR. Or is that Wyoming?


mountain bike - Biff - 08-25-2008

That's Renthood.
