Although I'm a geezer, I'm an avid exercise walker - I do a 2.3-2.5 miles/day in 30 minutes - so (for a geezer) I'm truckin'. Recently, I felt the need to expand exercise beyond the daily walk. I visited a couple of fitness clubs but was discouraged by the stark lighting, the earnest but humorless patrons and - most of all - by the destestable background music. So . . . . . I decided to buy a bicycle - a low-end "Comfort Hybrid" which combines front suspension and a suspended saddle post with street tires (geezer oriented, for sure). Here are some shots of the bike - taken inside (yes, my wife is a peach) owing to rain and heat - that allowed me to practice HDR and do some macros with my DFA 100. Also, I dragged out my DA 16-45 for the first time in a while to give it some exercise, which - like me - it needed.

Nice Bike

Looks like you have a winner there. The bike and the shots.
