I ride the Silver Comet usually every Sunday morning/afternoon depending on the temp and crowds. I put in at Nickajack Elementary. I started serious riding years ago on a used Gary Fisher Wahoo mountian bike, sold it off in 2011 and got a new Kaitai hybrid. I rode to work daily at CarMax almost 10 miles one way from my home. I have since moved and my studio is only a mile from my home in Brookhaven. Now I ride to and from the gym (about 8 miles round trip) 3 times a week weather permitting as well as Sundays on the Comet. I usually do 50 to 60 miles on the Comet on my bike (bridge pictured is 30miles out). I did do a century to Ala once with a few friends. I have not been on the trail in a few months so yesterday was a short 20 out and 20 back (40 miles). I really need a lighter bike, looking at a Trek Madone 5.1 for my new ride. Anyone want to hook up with me and ride hit me up and if anyone has a line on a 58mm Trek Madone I'll trade guns and ammo!

just got back from another great ride with wife and a small group (roughly 7 or8) met some nice ppl, the weather was awesome. We rode just under 27 miles with a 13.8 avg. Nice social ride!
