New Test Bike: Trek Soho

Things have been a bit snowy around here lately, but the white stuff is melting, and we're getting back to the business of riding bikes. Due to the snow, I've swapped the stock Bontrager H2 tires for my favorite winter-time knobby: Kenda's Kross Supreme.

Trek District - On Test

Most of the bikes I own are quite understated aesthetically. Which makes my affection for the District a bit of an oddity to me.

Seriously, look at all that orange. I love it, but I feel like I should be all grouchy about it.

Hiding under that natty pants guard is a Gates Caron Belt Drive. The future of commuter bicycle drivetrains? Too soon to tell, but the lack of mess and maintance is nothing to complain about.
