Got back into road biking in July of 2005, after 20 years off, with a Trek 7300. My wife and I bought the Pilots spring of 2006. The Volae was added summer of 2007. Then we got serious about bents in 2009 and added the XP Ti for me, and a Bacchetta CarbonAero 2.0 for Margaret. In 2011 we took our tandem on the Big Ride Across America, a ride from Seattle, WA to Washington, DC to benefit the American Lung Association. From July 2016 to June 2017, we toured self contained from Michigan to Maine to Florida to Arizona. Now retired snow birds.
