2002 Cervelo P3 Aluminum
Time Trial Road bike |
Description: Curb Weight; 21 lbs 14oz. My TT and Tri bike of choice. HED tri on the front, HED disc on the rear... that first time into the aero bars is a leap of faith, but once you're in them you are "wind stealthy".

1986 Trek 1000 Aluminum
Single Speed Road bike |

1996 Giant Iguana 650
Hardtail XC Mountain bike |
Description: 1/6/2010 - "Brown Thunder" has been donated. Curb Weight; 38lbs 4oz. This was the "freighter" for the family. Quite often I pulled a Nashbar single wheel trailer on errands. Empty weight on that is 14 lbs 8 oz. Commuting, unsupported touring, or hauling landscape supplies, 'ole brownie could descend like no other! Here is hoping someone gets this bike, and has the same experience...
Goodbye old friend, see you on the road.
Lifetime Odometer:
