To bike or not to bike?

Well it had to happen! What with the end of winter, the grass growing everywhere and the weather warming up, a bike had to be obtained! So I searched long and hard, missed out on some ripper bargains but eventually found a good one for a good price. Thanks to the sale of my NRS in Australia (thanks Monkey!) and some other money saved up, I was able to get a GT avalanche 1.0., which prob doesn’t mean much to most of you! Basically it’s a mountain bike, which will allow me to ride on tracks and on road, up and down hills. I took it out for a wee 35km spin the other day with Marc and Caleb (two other workers here at camp). Let’s just say that it’s a real blessing to ride!
