I will be a co-leader for many upcoming bicycle rides in the SE PA, South Jersey, DE, and Eastern Maryland areas. Trying to get more deaf/HOH/ASL cyclists involved.

All rides are from 10 to 100 miles long. Any questions, ask away!!!
 
aye!

it's also got 12 different speeds so i can ride on a variety of terrain. :) i haven't ridden since last summer but now since the weather is warm again, i do plan on going on some leisurely rides. ;)
 
I love to ride, but haven't ridden as much in the past couple of years that I would like to.
 
I love to ride! I commute 2 times a week by bike because Pittsburgh is a pretty bike-friendly city.

Does that 29er ride a lot differently than a 26er?

Oh, yes, there is a big difference in how it goes over obstacles. Handling seems better than a 26, and you sit quite a bit taller. That bike has a Deore DS 30 speed drivetrain, and makes hill climbs seem easy.

There are a few downsides to having a 29 inch wheel vs 26....wheel flex is much more pronounced, so don't buy cheap wheels. Those wheels I have are somewhat on the low end, they get out of true easily, so I am looking into investing in a set of stronger wheels.

Seems like 5 speed from picture. They're hot sellers in Chicago.

I have the same bike, but blue! No basket thought, but I want one! Anyway I also want a bike, a hybrid I think it's called...a cross between a road bike and a mountain bike. I was look for a group to bike with, but I live in NY.
 
Ok, blew the cobwebs off the mountain bike today. Giant Reign 3 is my bike. Went for my first spring ride..........was good..........missed it.............now I'm going to go pass out. Thank you
