I Feel Like a Little Kid Again!


Seriously, getting a new bike makes you feel like a kid! Remember when you were young and your parents took you shopping for a bicycle? The sparkling rims on the wheels? All the different colors and sizes? Well, multiply that by like 1000! The bikes of today are so varied in style and size and color that it makes your head spin. After my husband researched for hours on end on the internet we set out to bike shop. We don't have to go far because he was looking for Trek bikes and we have a local bike shop that carries them. I learned that there are now several kinds of bikes, like tennis shoes, depending on what you are using it for. I have been amazed at how my kids have to have 'tennis' shoes not only for tennis, but also for basketball, walking, running, etc. etc. The same goes for bikes.... I ended up with a bike for 'pavement and paths' since I will be riding on the road or the bike trail. Trek makes a bike for whatever type of bicycling you set out to do. Happy trails!
