sexy bars
i rode my mountain bike last night. i love mountain bikes. i can't explain it. there is something about them that just makes me feel more alive than any other type of bike. i try to find drop bars sexy but i can't. sexy to me is my flat bar with a 9 degree bend. i feel like my mountain bike is a part of me. i have yet to feel that with any road or cross bike.
i'm going to swap my drop bar on my cross bike back to a funky bar and see if i can't fall in love with that. at least until i'm back offroad.
speaking of sexy, thanks to john for putting cleats in my lake winter shoes for my lazy ass. i don't know how i've ever ridden in the cold without them. if you don't have a pair you must figure a way out to get them. it was strange to come home after my ride last night and not have burning white cold toes.

i feel the same way! i am just so much more comfortable on moutain bars (and a mtbike) despite starting my "biking career" as a roadie.
Come out to Colorado with us in July. You'll like those drop bars on the way down from Mt. Evans.
like it sez on murphykate's top tube, spicy:
"drop bars, not bombs".
listen to the young girl - drop bar mtn bikes have alwayz been where it at. :)

Lake winter shoes might be the best cycling investment I've ever made.
