'her'? Dude, it's a f*cking bicycle. Calling a m'cycle that is one thing as they can at least pretend to have some soul, in a weird mechanical way. But the only soul a bicycle has is the sucker on top.

It might be a treadlie but I am sure that Lorenzo could still find a way to fly over the bars at 60...

The front wheel looks like it has ABS. Does it have to be peddled above 3 mph to work? lol

Hey throttlemeister, I assume you and rob are about the same age.Rob will probably ride his -BICYCLE- to visit you in a nursing home one day Every time I'm in Amsterdam I rent a bicycle, usually the ten ton Mac Bike, it's simply the best way to get around.I envy the Dutch for the road systems that allow them to use bicycles as transportation, here in Georgia it will most likely get you killed.Besides keeping you in top shape, Al Gore will love you

a good mountain bike on a great trial is at LEAST as zen-ful as anything you can do on a motorcycle, maybe more.

Nice bikes guys. Real men do ride Cyclocross bikes. But just to correct you. Real men do it Single speed and take 3rd place in the state doing it? BTW that would have been me 2 years ago on my custom Gunnar cross bike.
