Fall is here, SADLY! :(

Boy the mornings are getting chilly, although Fall is really nice time of year, I already miss my HOT summer days! Ok I admit, I really DISLIKE cold weather and if it were up to me, it would be 72 degrees, sunny with a slight breeze all YEAR long!

Had to put on the Leg Warmers for the first time since May and it's all downhill from here. Still it is quite enjoyable to ride in the 70's with a autum sunshine being mellow. Still awaiting Jo's new KHS Vitamin B fitness bike, yes, it's a silly name, they have 3 models in this fitness bike style:

1. Vitamin A
2. Vitamin B
3. Vitamin C

Been really enjoying my 2012 Coda Sport, especially since I had the shop do a "bar" switch. The stock "straight" bar was not letting me get comfortable on the bike, so I had it changed to a bar with a 3 inch or 80mm rise and that made all the difference. Having the same bar swap done to Jo's KHS when it comes in. We picked this style of bike cause we didn't want a hardcore road bike or touring bike as we will be doing any "long distance" riding on our Trek T-900 Tandem. The Fitness style bike, is basicly a road bike with a "straight bar" instead of "drop bars", which neither of us likes. With the new bars, they will now be a bit closer to "road hybrids" than road bikes and for us and our needs, that's going to work out just fine! :)
