Rocketship

I got my first ride on the new bike, and what a revelation! Compared to what I've been riding on the road, this thing is a dang rocket.



It's like going from a pickup truck to a sports car. I only have one ride on it, but I'm totally digging it. It's gonna take several rides to get used to the handling of the bike, and the different body positioning.

On thing I have discovered, is that a given speed/cadence on a mtn bike, isn't the same on a road bike. I was working much harder today turning an 85-95rpm cadence than I have with a similar cadence on the old mtn bike.

I'll get some pics posted tomorrow...I promise.
