I gave back my borrowed Peugeot, which made my friend go Sad because he was hoping never to see it clutter his garage again.

As for now, one bike. A '03 Bianchi Veloce road bike Mr. Green

A 2002 Trek 1000 just like Cheryl's! Dancing Banana It's my commuter.

A 2002 (?) Quintana Roo Private Reserve (What's so private and reserved about it? I dunno.) My zippy weekends and racing tri bike.

fubby Huzzah, BICYCLES!

1. Fuji Esprit -- This bike is used occasionally by my husband. Don't know the year & can't remember how we acquired it. Was riding it when I was in a bike vs car accident in college. It was fixed, but I wouldn't ride it. :/ I wigged and found the heaviest bike I could...

2. [Sears] (Huffy) Free Spirit "Elite" (1998?) -- rigid MTB "upgraded" with hybrid tires, toe clips, lights, etc., that really gives its engine a workout. Wink I live and ride in the city and have participated in a few group events with it. This last fall I had the opportunity to help out with a local MTB race and fell in love with trail riding (all over again.) Dependable, sturdy, HEAVY.

3. Shopping around for bike #3. Could be either road or MTB.

4. Tri bike

...and any other excuse I can think of to get more bikes, gadgets, scars, and swag. I'm getting a rusted-arse Huffy 10-speed out of a pal's dad's garage for allah-knows-what.

Date?-Fuji. Keep meaning to get rid of it but still have it.
199?-Cannondale R600. Fits me like a glove and plan on keeping for a while for the trainer and nasty weather.
2003-Trek 5200 Carbon fiber-Fits me like a neoprene wetsuit.
199?-Raleigh Mountain bike. Keep it for visiting peeps when I want to take them out mountain biking to torture them.
2000-Specialized Stump Jumper mountain bike. Love it love it love it. But haven't taken her out in a while. Too afraid to break my head open.
