bikey bike

so, we got some bike riding in today and yesterday.... we hired some bikes from a store... i got a dodgy hybrid thing with fat tyres, front suspension and seatpost suspension. cathy got a mtb that clearly had lead weights injected to it.

did a few miles towards lake eyrie/fort eyrie in the sun y'day which was good... sat in the sun, ate a picnic. excellent.

today we went to niagara on the lake on them and called into a few wineries too. for some samples, cheese and biccies.... yum.

however, i have since discovered that suspension seatposts are indeed a means of torture and my arse has been violated/cut off me/impaled. nice. or not. also, suspension on a bike is the work of the devil... why take it and convert all that hard earned forward motion into downward motion because of it?
