I have talked about riding a new bike. This one purchased this year and have just put the first thousand miles on it. We all spend our first days with the new bike listening to the sounds, pings and clinks it makes and wonder "is that normal?". I do and have being the owner of the occasional new bike. Definitely doing it this time, too. Does the bike handle well, does it "drift" or "push" on corners, does the suspension handle the riders? Now, how is the seat for both riders? A new tire will be slippery until broken in, about 50 to 100 miles in most cases. Can we reduce the hard ride over the back seat? Can we, can we, can we, ask that question until we are blue in the face (hoping it is not the cold that is causing the blue). Will doing a small adjustment change the whole set-up? I will ponder these things on the second thousand.
See you on the Road!
