Got ordered it already, but my frames are absent
Waiting till the end of march.

What's ur bicycle for this new hot 2k8 summer ?

[roppin]

I just bought me this Nishiki. No gears and stuff that can break and very light... but sommer seems far away

[Paul Oblomov]

Looks like a "town-cycle"

I bought a KMX trike last summer.
Its really fun do drive, you can drift around corners like a racecar.

It isnt faster than a bike but it feels like your going at lightspeed
because your so low above the ground.

I am thinking about installing an electric motor this summer,
there are some cheap kits on ebay.

I bought this TREK 7700 last year and it was stolen once. I did bought a new one (exactly the same) but I've mounted new disk brakes. I'm really happy with it (both city and country usage) but blow a air chamber yesterday ;(

[Ramsay]

Had one of these but it got stolen in Toronto

I haven't used my bike for so long, that I don't even remember what it looks like... but I believe it was this one. Except I have a downhill steering wheel.

My bike only goes downhill. It's too heavy to go up hills...

Awesome, about time someone talked about bikes!
Yeah that Giant is pretty sweet, a bit cross-country for my liking but if you have fun on it, good on ya.
Tricky: your Nomad is wicked, Santa Cruz are by far my favourite bikes at the moment, although I saw a Norco on the weekend which blew me away.
This is mine:

Hoping to get up to Glentress and Dalby forest once this rubbish english weather has cleared up, try my hand at the North Shore stuff and not break anything!

[tricky]

Ah yes, my trusty Nomad. Not managed to get ouot over the past year (new baby, lots of work!) but its a stunner. I used to have a Superlight but fancied something with a bit more 'softness' to help with my ageing back! Wow - you can cycle through anything on this thing! 6 inches of travel and it weights about 30lb!

I was up around Ladybower at the weekend. A bit miserable weather wise, but it was a good day.

Oh I am a downhill lover, but I think it's more challenging to do it on my trusty old steel horse :P
I went downhilling a few times in Austria because you know... they don't call it the "Nether"lands for nothing.
We don't have many hills to do down off...
