Road bikes aren't just for roadies anymore ... they are a great way to put in some base training miles and are a great recovery ride option. They are built for speed, riding on a relatively smooth surface ... if you haven't ridden drop bars in a while ... try it out! Cyclocross bikes are a bit more durable and are designed for racing on smooooth dirt.

And if you are one of the cool kids ... get your butt on a fixed gear bike. No gears, no brakes ... a fixie is all style.
