My next adventure Seattle to Portland

Well I'm on to my next adventure I registered for the Seattle to Portland Road Bike event. Its July 12, 13
Its a 205 Mile ride and I'm doing it with 3 other people on my team 2 girls,1 guy(contemplating making it Team GenesisForums.org).

I went out and got a new bike today A 2009 Schwinn Fastback Elite (Tufast with love this its has carbon fiber parts). So tomorrow I start vigoursly training.:clap:

Nice bike, sounds like good exercise & fun...By the way, what's the weight of your new bike. When I was young, my dad owned a German racer that could be picked up with 2 fingers. Just wondering if they are even lighter now a days.

It weighs 20lbs you can lift it with 2 fingers easy.

It may be just me...but that seat does NOT look comfortable to be sitting on from seattle to portland...that trip can get uncomfortable in a car. But it does look pretty...(CF FTW!!)

You gotta get those girls to do some endurance rides or they will not make it.. if they can't do 60 mile treks they won't do 100.. I agree about the seat too, you should get this seat:

I did 30 miles today and was dead at the end took about 1:30. So we were going at a pretty good rate of speed I think i need to pace myself a little better.
