Only having been riding a motor-sicle a year, at 53 years old, my stable consists of one Bike, and a bicycle. Since getting the Nighthawk, named 'Old Paint', the pedaled steed, a Trek 1500 named Rosso, gets less attention... for obvious reasons. Here's a couple of pics, one of Rosso, and the other is Old Paint with Rosso reflected in the tank. They're both FUN, for different reasons, and I'm very happy with both!  rayof

I've wimped out and ride the stationary at the gym.  I still have an old Diamond Back in my attic, but my "padded shorts" days are way behind me.  Padded shorts, what a joke.  ImaPoser

yup, clipless pedals. First bike I've ever had with them. Funky to get used to. Almost plopped over a couple of times learning how to pop out of them  Hap1  Truly the bicycle has taken second place since getting Old Paint, but/and I still have a dream of cycling across the country... But to do that I've got to get on the dang thing again  happy1

Rosso is a real nice bike.  I got a road bike this year and am really enjoying it over my mountain bike.

Cool...I got a bicycle hanging in the garage too...I'm worried the amount of dust on it may become so heavy the hooks bend coollaugh

This literally happened to one of my mountain bikes.  Had it on hooks over the Nighthawk and one morning I found my Trek laying on the ground right next to the Nighthawk and Reflex.  Thankfully nothing was broken or even scratched.

When I first got mine I fell over in my driveway.
