Snow and freezing temps. Folks in the middle portion of the US, my apologies. I go out and purchase a new bike, and this is what happens.
My old bike is a heavy low-end mountain bike, which I have equipped with Michelin city tires. My new beater!
My new (and first) road bike is a Trek 2300, pictures to follow.

Wow! That is a real step up in rides. Enjoy.
I have been riding hairy legged through the winter here in Colorado because we had great weather (Greeley area) and I figured that if I shaved it would certainly bring the snow. I wasn't prepared to take the blame.

Awesome bike you bought!! I also like the phone book get-up you use for your trainer. I thought I was the only one who did that!!!

That is it... no new bikes for you anymore.
I have had enuff of this weather... I got a new bike just waiting to get some miles put on it and we got an inch of ice on the ground in Dallas. What is up with that...
