Picked up this hog the other day from one of the guys that works at The Bike Shop in EA.  
Scott Speedster S40. Once my knee gets better I’ll get to put some real miles on it, but so far I like it. :tup:

The current state of the CAAD after Junior and I left the house in a light rain which turned into a down pour near Orchard Park. Junior stayed bone dry, Richard did not.

Usually I just bike West Seneca/OP area. Was thinking about throwing it on the rack this weekend to go more downtown. Anyone know of any good routes down there??

^ I just always peddle standing up for that hill. Burns your quads like nobodys business. I didn’t know there was a “acheivment” thing there.

The S. Grand Island bridges kill me when I ride them.  
I’m pretty sure I want to throw up, suffocate and/or pass out when I ride them. And thats just me trying to get over 30 mph on the downhill side.  
I usually can’t pedal all the way up the hill.

Yep, I’ve been trying to throw as many climbs is as I can. I have the endurance to make it up pretty much anything now…just need to get faster.

I borrowed some kids 20" mongoose freestyle bike just because they live in a hill. N. Hill rd in S. Dayton

It was a terrible idea. The tires needed air and the bike is a tank, but I did hit 34 mph back down the hill.  
It was the first time in my life that I missed having low gears I could change to.

Figured I’d post in here for someone I know and saw a posting about. If anyone comes across a bike for sale.

> Hey my beloved bike was stolen out of my car: here is what she looks like. Blue SUNDAY broadcaster, orange bars and pedals, pink grips and purple headset. Also has 1 red spoke in the front wheel. Small details that might help it be noticed that shitty thugs might overlook

I don’t have the photo of the bike but maybe someone can put it up.

Anyone know of a place between Buffalo and the finger lakes that rents bikes? I’ve got a friend flying in from CA to ride a century next month and he doesn’t want to ship/fly his bike out here if he can avoid it.
