New bike' first ride 7-16


I had a little problem with my old mountain bike--too heavy for one thing. And, the last time out I ran off the sidewalk and bent my back tire. So my excuse was--I had to pay $60 for an alignment and tune up for the My Way or the Tri Way. So I put that money on a new bike.

The new bike eliminated my excuse for NOT doing the My Way or Try Way. So I'm in! 14 mile ride, 4 mile run and 14 mile ride. No swimming for the old man. Kortney and Amanda have done the swim, ride, swim--Ben and Kevin have done the traditional sprint triathlon.

My new bike is a "Roma" model - appropriate huh? New small tires and my first flat today! Ugh!
