Too many options here in my garage which can be used year round in Arizona.

If I'm stressed; a MTB ride is in order on
A) light weight 5.25" travel bike Ellsworth Epiphany with XTR,Avid Disc,Chris King,Crossmax XL, etc...
B) Bombproof 6" Travel, Ellsworth Moment with XTR,Evil bash guard, Chris King, WTB/Mavic wheels,Fox Vanilla RLC..etc light enough to pedal up anything.
C) Something Eclectic - Slingshot folding Frame MTB with XTR, ultralight everything (Easton,Avid Ultimates,Chris King, custom built wheels) Zokes Fly
D) Grocery runner - Single speed "steel is real" - Ultra cheap to prevent theft..

For something more relaxing..

A) Merlin Ti, Durace, FSA comp Carbon cranks, Chris King (headset,hubs), Easton lightest all carbon fork/steerer, and carbon Easton bars... 16.2 lbs with 14/15gauge trainer wheels.

B) Feeling some effortless cruising 1-6hrs :Kawasaki ZX14 - must use earplugs for 186hp/113ft/lbs at the rear wheel (Full Brocks Ti Exhaust, Power commander, TRE, etc..)

C) Feeling like a rebel - 2003 Kawasaki Z1000 (metalic orange) tricked out with Ohlins rear shock, ZX636R front end, radial brakes, Arata Ti Full Exhaust, Power commander, custom dyno mapping 130hp, LSL Superbike bars, CRG levers

Yeah I'm not married and I don't have a girlfriend..

Thom_y: Your creative use of your stereo room is awesome.. You should get a helmet cam and film your summer riding to re-live during the winter practice sessions... or get a winter place here..
When I had a bigger place I practices on my Kreitler Rollers (They will fix your pedal stroke or you will die trying) in front of my Magnapan IIIa's... the only problem was when I got tired I would slide off (20mph) and put skid marks on the floor because of breaking to prevent running over my system!

If you are into euro motorsport racing.. Speedtribe (http://www.dance51.com/speedtribe/dvdtrailer.html)is worth getting on DVD.. great CD to listen to and the DVD is qued to front242... amazing cool effects with the camera...
I just road my Giant mountain bike here in Michigan yesterday through 20+ inches of snow and a wind chill of -24!

One word... SCARY!

I live in a small town and cant see warming up the car to go to the post office, lol.

My new Cervelo is a 51cm, the older Trek 5200 (1992 original version OCLV) is a Trek so-called 54cm which is more like a typical 52. To be honest, I much prefer the fit of my smaller 51cm, with sloping top tube.
I like to ride my neuvo retro '89 Serotta Nova Special. 56 cm of classic columbus sl goodness updated with full downtube shiftin 9 spd dura ace. Snow causing me to put the miles in on my Puegeuot/Campy Athena/one-up trainer in front of the main system but once the snow melts the serotta will take it's rightful place.
