So I have put a few miles on the road bike, there is a great path down here that runs along Prince William Parkway in Prince William County, VA. It is about 11 miles from Manassas to Woodbridge, I plan on doing that when I get back from my honeymoon. I was going to the other day but 4 miles into the ride I remembered I had no spare or anything so if I got a flat I would have been walking a long way.
The mountain bike is great. I haven't gotten to ride it much cause both of the times I have been able to get out to the trails the bike has been completely unrideable going uphill because of the rear derailleur adjustment.
I didn't give the assembling tech the chance to fine tune the bike because I was in a hurry to pick it up and head out of state. And then the first adjustment down here was done by a young kid who didn't know what he was doing. Finally I got a better tech to adjust it and lube the shock mounts because it was creeping. Seems to be shifting well and all the creaking noise is gone.
After the honeymoon I am going to go back to Fountainhead trails and try and bust out at least a 5 mile ride.
So I have some big riding plans between the road bike and the mountain bike. I need to get this tiny pot belly I have gained over the last few months. I have started eating healthier, the bike should finish the equation.
