Any Road Bicyclist Here????

Just One More Coat
I've been an avid road bicyclist since the early 80's when I stopped running marathons. Was a category 3 (serious amateur) road racer during the late 80's for four years.

Today I ride 25 miles a day Monday to Friday, and weekends if there are no details. I clocked 3800 miles last year.

Here is my ride..Trek 5200 carbon frame ( same bike that Lance Armsrtong rode to win the tour) I changed out the rims to Rolf wheels, Victoria Rufino tires.

Any other riders on or off road?

I ride both MTB and Road (Tri Bike)

I have a Trek 69'er Top Fuel MTB, and a Cervelo P2K Tri bike.

I'll have to total up my miles from last year, but I get in a number of century rides over the past year. I try to get out 3 times a week, and depending on training can be 40-80 miles a ride.

Edit: Here is a pic taken of me at Iron Man Coeur d'Alene 2010:

I have a Gray Fisher MTB nice dual suspension ride but it doesn't get much use. Nice pic of you on the road! Looks like the kind of rider I enjoy twisting the crank with

Very nice, I almost bought a Gary Fisher, but the 69'er won my heart (then I spent a few months finding one to buy because they were out of production at that point).

I ride a 2008 Jamis Xenith Pro. Haven't been out as much lately because my schedule is kind of crazy, but I'm hoping to get back into it soon as it gets warmer out. I was into mountain biking until I tore some ligaments in my foot and had to carry some guy out of the woods with a bone sticking out of his ankle both in the same day...decided it wasn't worth risking my career so I'll stick with flat surfaces. :)
 
My full-time job is in a bike shop, although we specialize in MTB and BMX. My last few bikes were an 07 Rocky Mountain Switch which I sold to buy an 07 Specialized Enduro, Yeti DJ that was my dirt jumper (obviously), and an 07 Specialized Stumpjumper FSR that I tore down to build my Voodoo Wanga single speed. Currently I'm bikeless, although our shop has a large Specialized/Niner demo fleet, so I still have a choice of what I want to ride.
 
In my younger days this is the bike I use ( 1971 ) and enjoy for many years till I sold it in the 80's.:wall It was a Italvega model with the gold plate on it and was one heck of a bike. Looks like I might get back into it very soon.

i'm not a competitive rider but can appreciate what it requires. i have a trek 7200 hybrid that i ride back and forth to the gym during the week. keeps me in touch with how much fun it is just riding a bike again.
