LOL. I did that for weeks when I first found that site. It is a miracle I didn't end up buying a
dozen bikes. On the other hand, most of the fun was trying to make it even better...so maybe that is
why I never bought one from them. Oh yeah, and the price...
So much for an actual conversation on what people are riding. I meant what are the makes and models
of your bikes. I didn't mean to cause a strong reaction with unclever wittiness.
A hand-me-down GT XR road bike with Shimano 105 running gear and Laurent Jalabert pedals from Look.
It's a good machine, but built too high. Meanwhile, Dad (who falls firmly into the Fatty Master
category, and does more skating than cycling) has a brand-new carbon-fiber Giant which he doesn't
let me ride...

I have ridden a 25lb steel-frame Fuji Tivoli for years, up some horrendous grades, down harrowing
descents and pretty much everywhere else. I finally broke the rear wheel and elected to replace it
before replacing my trusty mountain bike (which has stood in for the past year and kept me fit to
some degree.) Riding a Colnago Dream Plus for the past 4 weeks and loving it (with the exception of
two flats this past Saturday.)

Sue him. You can ask Talks With ****-Eating Flies for some help in this matter.
