After riding a tri-bike exclusively for the past 15 years I finally pulled the trigger on a new road bike. There were tons of choices and I rode a bunch of different makes and models. I ended settling on a 2005 Trek Madone 5.2, 9-speed.
What a great ride. So THIS is how a bike is supposed to climb? So THIS is how a bike is supposed to descend and corner? I guess I really never knew how much better a road bike handles. Anyway, you can ignore my babbling...but it is damn exciting (ya I know, it doesn't take much).
This is enough to convert me to full-time roadie. Maybe.
