Pretty much everything. I have a carbon aero road bike, a steel 80s OTS, an enduro bike, and a hybrid that I converted to a rando/touring rig.

What kind of bikes do you have?
>>23833458
One of my life goals is to complete the RAAM within the time limit without a support vehicle. Do you think it's possible?
>>23833593
A 94' Rockhopper with original Aerospokes and Brahma bars, it's a hand down but well maintained, and I don't mind the drag considering how stable it is off road.
What's your favorite to ride?

Always forgetting to post.

You're a big guy.
Cool bike though, I love old bikes. I don't really have a favorite of my bikes, I love them all and it just depends on the kind of riding I'm doing. My favorite kind of riding is riding the paved bike trails in Minneapolis, that's so much fun and they're so expansive. Hundreds of kilometers of trails.
Here's 3 of my bikes, and you can kind of see the frame of my currently disassembled mtb off to the side.

FOR YOU
In Washington.
Years ago I used to ride BMX, stopped riding for awhile. For about a year I've been getting into general road cycling, last Saturday I did about 50 miles, so I'm having fun getting into becoming more serious.
I'd like to get to the point of doing the Seattle to Portland trip, that sounds like fun.

The STP event or just do the route on your own? I want to do the event. My longest ride so far is 305km (189 miles), so just barely shorter than the STP. And that was on a heavy steel bike. I think I'm almost ready for the STP. I'd like to do it sometime.

I'd like to do the event, however, I don't think I'm nearly ready yet.
UK, England???
I enjoy a long road cycle
