Default Re: Riding in the hood.

I have again stopped walking at the mall. I hate walking around in circles. I think I'm going to turn the giant mtn bike back into a one speed bike for the bike/walking path. There is one nasty hill coming home from the path but all the rest is doable. I can even drive to the path with the bike on the back of my car but that defeats the purpose of having a bike. The idea is to completely do away with the car.

I do not wish to ride in my neighborhood on my test route lol. I want to ride that darn bike path through the woods. Even then I need to replace the seat on the big bike with something besides the seat from the sacrificial twenty inch kiddie bike. I can't imagine riding that thing six miles. It might change my sexual orientation.
