Yup!Banks-Vernonia trail?
Nothing fancy for me, a Specialized Sirrus Comp Carbon with Mavic Ksyrium wheel upgrade. Just coming back from a collarbone break and my confidence is not returning, to be honest I am plain scared and not enjoying riding any more. I suppose I will just have to give it time.View attachment 1110208
I just had a terrible crash on my mountain bike a couple days ago and it will be interesting to see how I feel about riding again once I'm healed. I'm for sure out for the rest of the season, but come Spring, I'll have to decide if I want to get back on the saddle. I imagine that I'll still want to ride, but hard to say for sure because right now I have a lot if injuries to deal with (fractured nose, concussion, fractured neck & back, broken hand, cut under my eye, and a really scraped up face).
Very sorry to hear about your injuries. That was a bad one. I had a bad crash back in 2011. I was definitely not nearly as confident, getting back on the bike. I limited myself to errands on my utility bike for over a year.
So I hope you are able to build back at an appropriate pace and find the joy again. All my best wishes for a speedy and complete recovery.
I am sorry to hear that, I wish you well with your recovery; take your time. In my case my wife has dissuaded me from cycling much as the roads are not safe here and I may not be so lucky were I to have another accident. I now cycle only when I need to and not for pleasure. It is a shame but it is just a part of my life that has changed for the worse, other parts have changed for the better and for that I am grateful.

Heal up quickly! That’s quite a list. I’ve separated a shoulder and broken a finger, but made it back to the woods both times. You’ll be back soon!I just had a terrible crash on my mountain bike a couple days ago and it will be interesting to see how I feel about riding again once I'm healed.

About a month ago I saw this frame outside a restaurant in Ft. Myers, FL. I snapped a photo and sent it to my brother-in-law, who has ridden Jamis bikes. Wish I still had the pic...must be from the same era. Enjoy it!Picked up this vintage steel frame Jamis road bike. My first bike in about 15 years. I have really been enjoying it so far and it will be interesting to learn how to do maintenance and maybe even do a couple of small upgrades to it.View attachment 1151691
That's really interesting. I tried to search up some info on the internet about the frame to maybe date the bike a bit but really couldn't find anything on this particular modelAbout a month ago I saw this frame outside a restaurant in Ft.

I sure hope that bike doesn't get ripped off on campus, really a classic.
Does anyone ride one of these?
This model wil ride Two.

the derailer Breezer is contesting with my old Trek 930 unsuspended mountain bike for the top of the utility bike podium. Unless, that is, I can get my wife to let me sell her childhood/college Schwinn LeTour and take the Breezer on as her commuter.
The Schwinn is sitting outside, unlocked, (sporting a flat tire with a torn casing) but no one has stepped up and stolen it yet.
