You've got that right. Big Bucks is the name of the game.
It takes all of the Sport out of the game. My old Trek 850
is a lot older than some of the guys out there that are
reading this Forum. I repair it when it needs repairing,
and just ride it whenever the weather cooperates. It is for
excersize more than anything. If I didn't ride that ol' Trek
my feet, ankles, hips, and so on and so forth would be so
stiff I couldn't walk. Not only that it helps keep my
Blood Sugars low enough to keep from having to use Insulin.
