After riding to work on a cheap bike for a few years now, it was time to upgrade to something at least half-decent. I didn’t want a bike that I was going to have to worry about locking up outside everyday, but still wanted to be able to do a bit of trail riding. After some research and taking a couple for a spin, I decided on the Kona Fire Mountain. I picked it up last night and took it for a little ride. Today will be the first day it makes the trek to work. I can’t wait!
UPDATE: The bike made it to work and back. I had to make a pitstop back at Bow Cycle to get the gears readjusted since I was having a bit of trouble. A few minutes in the shop and it was good to go! I never knew riding could be so much fun. I even managed to get up Home Road Hill on my way home! I’ll have to get it out on the trails soon…
