Ok so we love to ride our bicycles! So what kind of bike do you have? Are you a roadie? Mountain biker? Or a cruiser! They all rock!

Me.... I had a road carbon fiber italian frame called JAD. The red/white and blue one... I have had it for about 7 years . My honey just got me a new bike. Its another road bike. Carbon fiber FeTish frame. I love the Hot pinkish/purple and white stickers and the nipples on my wheels are even pink! I was so excited... she rides so nice and smooth... what a difference with new shifters too! :love:


Share your bikes my friends!!!

  • I'm a mountain biker myself. TREK is my favorite so far. I have a simple cheap one that takes off roads like a champ. My boyfriend and i go to the adirondacks all the time for the trails because they are amazing! (and of course because the adirondacks = absolutely beautiful)

    You've seen it--in my profile pick. I want a road bike but right now have a Raleigh Hybrid. Just put road slicks on it.

    I see it, but just didn't know what kind.

    I have a trek hybrid that I ride around with a trailer on it. My girls love to go on bike rides!

    you need to have it hosted by like photobucket or similar site. then copy the code for BB boards, but change the and tags to lower case so they look like this [img][/img]

    Or, you could just load it up into your photos on your profile--easier.

    Before, I had a Trek Hybrid 7200 which I still like, but for triathlons I definitely need a road bike!!

    Thank you! Now you can see the sweat... LOL

    I love seeing everyone else's bike also!! It's been an awesome change going from a Hybrid to the Road bike and going for the clipless pedals and cleats! Love it!

    A classic
    I love this bike - I gave up my paid off truck (to my dad) so this is my daily transportation.

    ready?
    So cute.:heart: Mine has the smaller front wheel (because I'm petite) but is the pink. 21 years old and still rides like a dream.

    I had the handlebars and stem replaced to fit me exactly and got clip in pedals. Then I had the bike fit to me in a 1/2 hour session.

    Yup - it certainly stands out on campus. People know me by my bike. If I don't have it locked up outside my building (the creepy old one:wink: ) then they think I'm not there.
