Default B.O.B.'s Dark Side

Shannon has moved over to the dark side. She followed Jose's and my direction and bought a fully rigid Kona Unit 29 inch Single Speed.

She picked the bike up this AM, then Shannon, Jose, and I went out for the maiden voyage. She did very good climbing "I Think I Can" in El Moro. She said it hurt...it must not have been bad because she was smiling the whole ride. That and she is already looking to ride again...Good Job Shannon

Thanks for invite Shannon.

you go girl! that is great.

if i am "allowed" to get another bike, it will be the same bike you just picked up. in fact, i talked to my local shop about getting one today in case i get the aforementioned permission.

congrats!

Well, there goes my theory about why people ride SS. I'll have to revise it based on these new data.

She bought it because it is fast and will be hammering your sorry geared ass uphill.

Nam, now I feel bad, what's going on?...no riding. That is not like you, you were hittin' it hard, then you went and tore your bike down to re-paint it?

She's obviously doping. I'm ashamed of you guys. You give cycling a bad name.

When I get back from Arizona...how about a Old Camp Luge SS ride. I know Jose will want to also do Whitting. That can be the next time. Old Camp is plently of climbing on a SS for me.
