      I have been riding a 8+ year old mountain bike bought from a friend for a while now. It let me realize how much I love riding a bike. I found myself mostly riding on the road as my back could not take the trails. Well, I came home a few weeks ago and my wife said "come on, me and the girls (3 years old and 8 months) are buying you a new bike today". I completely thought she was kidding, but went along anyways. I got the "pick out what you want" treatment from her and this is what we walked out with. A 2011 Giant TCR Advanced 1. An absoultely beautiful bike to ride. I am averaging 30-40 miles a day with longer rides on the weekends. I have also registered for a 100K ride this summer.

      Now I have to split my time between sketching and riding.

          Nice. I still have my Giant Iguana mountain bike. Although it collects more dust than sunlight these days. 😳
