Took the wife and our bikes on a short trip this weekend. Went to Wisconsin to ride, eat, and relax. Had been on these trails a couple of months ago, but with a different bike. This time, took the Hillborne. After some misgivings, realized the bike could handle these trails just fine. About perfectly, in fact. The 40mm wide tires were wide enough for the gravel and less than optimum paving. And the high handlebars and comfy handling of the bike combined to make riding seriously fun.
The only thing less than ideal was the weather, which was slightly on the hot and humid side. Although not as bad as feared. At least until Tuesday. A short jaunt on the trails that morning had me perspiring quite freely. Didn't see any fish mistaking the air for the water, but it was close. May be adding a few photos to this set in the near future. Had to get a roll of film developed. And, well, we'll see what develops. Otherwise, the set is here - http://tinyurl.com/2bdcrct BTW, finally have over 1,000 miles on the Hillborne. For some reason, it was the last of the three main bikes to do that this year. Will need to make up for that. Eric Platt St. Paul, MN -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
