Well, on my list of favorite things is of course my wife and kids, but following close behind is my bike. Yes, that's right I said my bike. It has taken me about three years, but I finally built the bike of my dreams. I enjoy the outdoors and especially riding my road bike. It started a few years back when a neighbor of my talked me into visiting the local bike shop. I came out with my first bike and I'm currently on my third, but this time I build it from all my favorite parts. Two years ago I was able to convince Julie to join me on the road and we purchased her first bike. Now, she is on her second and it is a thing of beauty (not as beautiful as her). Last year she completed her first century ride (100 miles). I was so proud of her. I'm sure over the coming days, weeks and months you will hear more about our cycling adventures. My biggest accomplishment on the bike was the completion of my first 206 mile ride in a single day three years ago and I've done one every year for the last three. More to come on those too, but for now I wanted to include a picture of my bike because I think it is so sweet and it's my blog so there.
