Somebody bought my Lemond! w00t!
I think I can probably get a KM frame and wheelset with the proceeds. I can transfer some parts from the Diamondback, but at a minimum, I’ll still need dérailleurs, a headset, a threadless stem, and a pair of big-honking, mud-bogging, monster-truck tires.
That will leave me with 2 bikes, which I think is the perfect number. I’ll have the Trek for sufaces ranging from glass-smooth pavement to moderate fire trails, and the KM for everything from moderate fire trails to lunar regolith.
And that should just about cover it.
Today: 5 miles
May: 37 miles
2007: 326 miles
My friend Sam did the length of the great divide MTB route on a KM last summer.
