Spoiled with bikes

Darren and I became a four bike family today. That is to say that we both bought new bikes after attending a warehouse sale this morning. We did our research, showed up early and took our picks out for a test ride. I have wanted a mountain bike for some time now and have put off this extravagant purchase thinking that one bike was plenty for one person to own. Well, I have changed my mind and am looking forward to taking on some of Victoria's easier mountain bike trails. I am open for suggestions and riding partners but I warn you that I am quite a conservative rider and don't favor trails with jumps, stumps and other face breaking obstacles. Darren also bought a new mountain bike as this is definitely a team sport for us and with the long walk finished we are on to our next recreational accomplishment, learning to ride off road. We are also confident that these bikes will be traveling with us to our next overseas destination so we can ride out to fields instead of walking. It is a more efficient means of transportation than your feet and fun too!
