Aaaah, bikes!

After a night of thinking it over, and my wonderful husbands abilities to comparison shop and find reviews online, we ended up with the Trek 7.2FX series.  It looks like it will meet all of our biking needs – from the starting up now (I haven’t ridden in about 5 years; Nick said this may be his first ‘meant only for him’ bike ever), to all of the bike path/canal trails riding this summer, to possibly a triathalon next year?!    Yep, we both ended up with this exact, pretty blue bike – it was the only one in the store left in Nick’s size, and the ‘women’ bikes, I’m told, were meant for women with longer legs and short torsos – which I don’t have.

Happy National Bike Month to us with the new sets of wheels and all the accessories!  (Yes mom, we both got good helmets!)

After the bike store, we used our new trunk rack to drive the bikes down to the Cresent Trail for a brief 6 mile ride between the drops of rain.  This is the most comfortable bike I’ve had in awhile – the seat didn’t hurt at all (a first for me!)  So all in all, very excited to do the biking thing this spring/summer/fall.

The rest of Saturday was wonderful, between QT with my #1 and a long walk with the pup – I wish weekends were much much longer!
