I finished building my CAAD7 yesterday. Then I rode it to rehearsal. Parked it outside a restaurant for a bit. Someone stole it. So I rode it exactly once. Darn!

Actually I did ride today. I just finished building my track racing bike and couldn't wait to try it, so I test rode it in the snow. It was scary but fun, and I lived to tell the tale.

No, but I rode yesterday and the day before. Both days, I forgot my helmet and didn't realize it until well into the ride. Better be more mindful of that. This is a new thing with me.

OK, I made it. I drove my car up to aixaix's shop and cycled back home. The headwind was relentless. I'm exhausted. It was only about 19 miles, but it feels like a metric century.

I rode for the first time since moving back into Manhattan. This will take some getting used to, though it is fun and invigorating.

Good point, fox. Buy a $400-500 bike, so it will be a good bike but not too fancy. Then you can decide if you want a road bike, a city bike, or whatever.
