Any M3 owners out there into cycling (bicycles)? If so road or mtb?

Road for me.

derekp · 02-26-2013, 09:41 AM

MTB here, been a while since I have ridden though need to get back into it.

quiksi · 02-26-2013, 10:07 AM

road, currently riding a 2006 Specialized Allez Triple I bought off craigslist for $350

looking at upgrading to a motobecane lechampion titanium model from bikesdirect someday...

Road for me, gotta get back into it this year

RingMeister01 · 02-26-2013, 10:19 AM

+1 Road.

DBH · 02-26-2013, 10:48 AM

Road bike for me. Two bikes in the stable - a custom bike made by a builder from Ridgefield, CT and a 1981 Windsor Professional bought at Conrad's in NYC. A bit of trivia - Eddy Merckx won the hour record on a Windsor track bike in Mexico City in 1972.

MTB. There's a lot of great trails here in the Bay Area. A few of us M3 locals ride together occasionally. Here's my bike: http://www.flickr.com/photos/radiant...in/photostream (Santa Cruz Nomad)

Both, although mostly road lately out of laziness

Cheers

EDIT: Well gee, if we're doing bike porn... The road bike has the aero bars off now that I've stopped doing tris, and the MTB now has XT. Other than that, about the same, pretty basic but they've served me well.

Road cyclist here

Raucky2000 · 02-26-2013, 12:44 PM

I'm a road racer and log about 7-8k miles a year...Let me know if you're in central Ohio and wanna ride.

Raleigh Super Course Carbon. I'm not compettive but love to do long organized rides like RSVP (Ride Seattle to Vancouver and Party) ~200 miles

GRUESOM3 · 02-26-2013, 01:16 PM

Ride 6 months of the year to work whenever the weather is good and occasionally some long rides with some friends. No racing I built the bike for fun

jpan08 · 02-26-2013, 01:20 PM

Road!

urBan_dK · 02-26-2013, 01:25 PM

Road, riding a Colnago CLX with Ultegra gruppo. New cyclist, registered to do the STP (Seattle to Portland) ride this year in one day.

Da M3nace · 02-26-2013, 01:28 PM

MTB every chance I get. Specialized Epic Comp with many upgrades to XTR. I have a picture posted in a bike rack thread. I use the OEM bike rails and MTB rack purchased directly from dealership. Long Island has plenty of great trails believe it or not, maintained by C.L.I.M.B. organization.

flanast · 02-26-2013, 02:09 PM

Road for me. A trek madone

Transfer · 02-26-2013, 02:46 PM

MTB here in the glorious PNW, both downhill and trail.
I broke my wrist at Whistler last summer but getting back into it now although I too fear I may be getting too old for DH.

God bless you, you still have hairy legs. Good man.

Both here, with about half your annual distance most years, 6k in a good year.

Your SB-66 is looking good. Wish my carbon came in Yeti turqoise. MTB in NC.

slamako · 02-27-2013, 10:32 AM

Roadie for me.
Raced a bit when I was a cadet/junior and into Senior.
Took some time off and now just ride for fun.
try to do 10k km' a year..but work and family get in the way.

Right now-it's a cross bike for the wintery mix of weather we have.
Had a Trek Madone, but gave it to my brother...now in the market for a new bike.
