Although it’s not cycling weather now, even though we’ve had *mild* weather compared to what Winter could really bring us here in Northeastern Pennsylvania, I put my bike away for the Winter. In 2013, I upgraded my road bike and purchased new Trek Domane’s.
Here is my 2013 Trek Domane 5.2 WSD:
I can’t even begin to tell you how much I love this bike! The way I look at it, we have about 3 months of winter (Jan, Feb, and Mar) to get through and then I’ll be on this bike again. This year, however, I won’t be working two jobs and I’m starting to train now to get into cycling shape so that when the weather breaks, I’m ready to go.
Prior to this bike, my very first road bike was a 2007 Trek Pilot 5.2 WSD. I also loved that bike, so much so that I still have it. I keep it on a trainer in my basement to ride throughout the winter. When you put a road bike on a trainer, it wears down the back tire. Still… I loved that bike so much – this (below) is the bike I used for the Independence Triathlon in 2011. I put many, many miles on this bike.
How could you not love this bike?
