Shannon thinks it is squirrly. She hasn't used the word squirrely, but the handleing is kinda...*waves arms.*
Tonight I test-rode a Long Haul Trucker. And it was not squirrely. When I turned, it turned; when I went straight it went straight. Which leads me to two conclusions:
1. The Peugeot is sick
2. A LHT is sick (as in cool)
3. The cat has found catnip and is very clingy.
perhaps a new bike is somewhere in the future. But I have new questions.
I have been using 27in tires and like the larger wheel, maybe, should I try out another bike with 27in tires and see if I like them better than the 26in tires I rode today.
What about the Pugsley I test rode last year? I seemed to be pretty gaga for that too. what the hell, am I just excited to buy something new?
How am I going to come up with the extra thousand dollars.
The difference in size of wheel might be enough so I don't feel like I am buying a modernized replica of what I already have, or like Jim said in the shop: "you could make it [Frenchie] a single speed." tempting.
The trouble with me buying an expensive mountain bike is: I don't mountain bike. winter commuting by bike might be just as easy with Nokians. (I dunno, but thats what I hear).
1.???
2. Profit!
3. buy bike
