New Bike Arrives


New 2008 Ibex Alpine 550

Since I made a post about this bike coming soon, I procrastinated on actually ordering it until earlier this week. After finally ordering, it came very quickly, showing up at my door today. It took me about an hour to assemble, and appears to be a very high quality machine.

I'm looking forward to getting it out on the trails. I still need to buy a hitch-mount bike rack, and I need to replace the rear skewer on the bike in order to use it on my trainer. Replacing the skewer will be a challenge because of the delicacy of the rear cassette.
