Can't wait to make it rain on the east side when the first paycheck rolls in. Going straight to schnucks and cashing it in for the big bills.

Man, I put 20 miles in on mine this morning. I was getting passed by dudes twice my age, almost thrice my age. But, in my own defense, the gears are all kinds of jacked up since I used to do a boat load of trail riding and crashed more than once. It's time to switch it up for one of them fancy road bikes, all skinny and fast and stuff. That's where paycheck number one will be going after recurrent.

Copperhed51, where's he at? I need his advice.

I can never forget being passed in a 10K run by a fat guy. And this was back in the high school days when I was running cross country and track. Then there was the time I got beat in a 5K by a girl who had to be roughly 12 years old.

Same here!

My crap-tastic road bike will have to be retired sometime this summer...first thing I'm going to reward myself with is a new mountain bike.

Thinking Trek this time instead of Giant.

(Definitely thinking Trek for the road because the local shop hold sale items for me.....because I'm a G)
