You know there is one thing that you never tell your wife but I had to, Last year we both decided to get into riding bikes on the trails, I got myself a Treck Navigator 100 and my Wife got herslelf a Gaint Suede and unfortionly her's only had 8 gears while my bike had the 21 gears needless to say the more gears you have the better and she was only after comfort at the time and she found out while the bike is real comforable yea but it is also a lot of work trying to get it to go up hills with very little gears to choose from, Well believe it or not I was finally able to talk her into a little better bike I got her a Treck Navigator 200 and it was cheeper then the one I got for myself but at least she will be now able to keep up with us on the trails she wasn't too happy with the size my is a 16.5 and her's is a 14.5 but I told her if she wants a bigger bike she can ride my bike and I'll ride the new one in fact they are the same bike all I have to do is raise the handle bars the set is already set the bike store has done that for us I have rode this bike before we bought it scene I do most of the trails and know how they are to shift in gears and everything, and I have to say riding that bike is just like riding my bike, all I have to do is get a mirrow for it which I will get that on payday and then it is ready for the trails, I think that I am going to take it on every other trip to the trail even tho it will be a pain cleaning the both of them, I just got my bike washed and waxed and the chain lubed form the ride that I took it on the other week to the Allegheny Passage Trail in Somerset Pa, I really am not able to do a lot of things but riding a bike so far I can do and I really enjoy it, And Now I have another Buddy moving into the area this is going to be great My Wife and him and his family and of course me all riding the trail that is going to be fun, Like the old saying the Family that rides Together Stays Together, and besides it is a good Healthy Sport to get into .
Will write more from the trails later when we get them rode and tell you all which ones are good and which ones really don't measure up
for now Take Care and God Bless
