More bike research

So I have been looking around for prospective bicycles. I had my eye on the Bianchi, but there have been some other good deals out there from other bike companies. Another alternative I am looking at is the:
Cannondale Caad9 7

I have seen it at bike shops on sale for under $900. It looks so nice...

Lastly, I also interested in the Specialized Allez Double. It just so happens to come in my favorite color scheme.


The shopping continues....

Mid-week ride - My longest ever!

Decided to bike to Santa Rosa and beyond. I got kinda scary in Santa Rosa with a lot of the the downtown traffic. I lot my way looking for Stony Point Road and ended up almost going to Sebastapol. I passed a couple places I would like to eat in the future. I found Stony Point Road and endured the smell of cows and dead snakes on the side of the road. I will definitely ride this route again.

Short Friday Ride

So I was off to a easy 15 mile bike before sundown. Unfortunately I had to go back home in the middle of my trip because I had to do some stuff for the GF. O well...i think I will find a 25 mile bike journey tomorrow.

I sold my Centurion that I picked up last weekend. I decided I will stick with my Bianchi for now until I pick up a modernized bike.

I also checked out Cambria bike shop (Cambria Bike in Santa Rosa) It is a 30min bike ride from my place. A LOT of high end stuff. I found my dream bike:
Bianchi Via NIRONE7 Carbon Tiagra

I picked that because it is obtainable if I had a job. $900 at my LBS.

Off to garage sales this weekend!

Wednesday's ride

First bike ride to Santa Rosa. Well... I did not really make it all the way to downtown. I wanted to bike to the local bike shops in the area. So i checked out Cambria Outfitters and REI. I caught the best tailwind going north on Santa Rosa Avenue. I was just flying! Made it back to SSU and regained my breath by the pond.

So today was great day that ended in disaster. So my GF, Anna, her friend, Dre, and I went to Bodega Bay for the afternoon. We had to hike to my favorite beach, Pinnacle Gulch.

I got there, the waves never showed up. I guess the best time is late summer like the rest of NorCal. So I just hung out and played around with the small waves.


Also found a CRAB!

So at the end of the afternoon, I feel a tingling sensation on my toe. This is not the first time it happened. So I feel my body getting warmer. And BOOM...hives. I am not sure why I get them, but they pop out outta nowhere if I hurt my "bad" toe. We had to double time back to my apartment because I did not have my meds. It was my life and death situation for the week.

Monday's ride

So I was supposed to bike to walmart to buy a bike tire compressor. I biked there after escorting Anna to SSU. I locked up my bike, took the compressor from the shelf, and went to the checkout. When I was about to pull out my wallet, I realized I didn't have it. Great...just great......
