My Bike.
I bought this bike with my life-long friend Mike, back in high school in the early 90's. This bike has held up over the years quite nicely. Over the past few years, though, I haven't been using it since it isn't quite practical to ride a mountain bike to Philly (from Trenton) every day. But, since I am now transitioning to city life, I thought this thing would be useful here in Geneva. My boss was kind enough to bring my bike along with all of his furniture.

However, a mountain bike isn't the most practical thing to have in a city. Asphalt streets allow for faster speed, and the gearing and tires should match the environment. Mike, who now works for MAVIC (Shameless Mavic Plug: Go here for all of your bike needs! http://www.mavic.com), visits the nearby French town of Annecy often. He had business this week, so he came a few days early to visit - and he brought some tasty new bike parts for me :-)
