My wish list

OK, so obviously in any sport there are different levels of equipment. From the Wal-mart cheap stuff to the professional grade high-end, fully customized stuff and everything in between, you can't help but continuously look and ogle and eventually build a wish list.


So after much ogling and comparing, I have built my wish list of cycling equipment:


1) The Orbea Ordu or Ora Triathlon Bike:

2) GIANT's TCR Advanced I or II Road Bike:

3) Off-road and Single Track GIANT's Talon 29er 1:

Each of these bikes serves a different purpose and are a great way to round out a collection of outdoor cycling equipment for everything from serious competition to commuting to a romp in the woods. 


Someday, ooooh someday... I will probably start with the road bike and work my way up to the other bikes later on. In the meantime, I gotta be happy with what I have for now and that I can actually get out there every day and pound the pavement.


Also, I went on my first trail ride today on "The Rock" church trail. Supposedly good for beginner/intermediate, it had a few challenging parts but otherwise, I was not overly impressed with my first experience off-road. Maybe I should have gone to San Felasco's trail head. Unfortunately though, I probably won't be trail riding again anytime soon since I broke something on my Wal-mart cheap mountain bike and it'll probably cost more to repair than the bike is worth. Total bummer too because I did have plenty of fun on that trail!
