Best in the biz (cont.)Posted: Tuesday April 24, 2007 11:33AM; Updated: Tuesday April 24, 2007 12:12PM Daily A-Rod scoop
In addition to the changes and improvements I cited in Monday's Daily Scoop, some folks close to Alex Rodriguez believe one big key in his historically torrid start is a change in his swing to emphasis the hands and de-emphasize the upper body. They also mention two more positive alterations: he's keeping his head back and not swinging as hard. Whatever he's doing, he continues to amaze. With two more home runs on Monday in a 10-8 defeat to the Devil Rays, that's two two-homer nights in four games, with both resulting in losses. The Yankees are also 0-7 when A-Rod fails to homer. So the only solution is for him to homer only once, then hope for the best for his beleaguered, beat-up team. Around the Majors With the callup of top prospect Phil Hughes to pitch Thursday, much earlier than expected, the Yankees continue to do things to surprise themselves. Torre was going to limit Mariano Rivera to one-inning situations, and that went out the window in Friday's loss to the Red Sox. One night after brother Jeff Weaver lasted only three innings in Anaheim, Jered Weaver didn't make it out of the second. The younger Weaver was throwing only around 87-89 mph, providing cause for concern. Gary Matthews Jr. just hit his first homer for his $50 million, but one scout insists, "He's worth it defensively.'' There have been a lot of injuries to pitchers, including Cardinals ace Chris Carpenter and Blue Jays reliever B.J. Ryan. But it's hard to imagine a bigger blow to a staff than Seattle losing the King, Felix Hernandez. Jim Thome's on-base percentage is at .553 after a recent stretch of 15 walks in six games. That's nearly a hundred points higher than Barry Bonds' (.466). Jose Reyes is off to a brilliant start, but let's not forget his Marlins shortstop/leadoff counterpart Hanley Ramirez, who's actually ahead of him -- in terms of percentages, anyway. Reyes has a .438 on-base percentage, .610 slugging percentage and .351 batting average compared to .480, .645 and .371 for Ramirez. Both have scored 21 runs. The differences are that Reyes has 16 RBIs and 21 stolen bases to six RBIs and six stolen bases for Ramirez (though both have an .833 steal percentage). Mark Prior, who needs exploratory surgery, is starting to become a charity case. Bernie Williams had multiple offers from East Coast teams but hasn't come off his stance of not wanting to play for anyone but the Yankees. Nomar Garciaparra is batting .391 with runners in scoring position since coming to the Dodgers, compared to .264 with nobody on base. This year, he's hitting .615 with runners in scoring position. Gary Sheffield only predicted a big year for A-Rod, not for himself. So in a sense, Sheffield (.143 after Monday's game) is 1-for-1 in his predictions. 2 of 2

Scientist: Hijacking risk to Pakistan nukes
Warns of increasing focus on nuclear weapons for tactical use
(ZeeNews) London: Increasing radicalisation within Pakistan's military could lead to its nuclear weapons being hijacked by radical Islamists, a Pakistani scientist has warned.
"Safety and security of Pakistan's nuclear arsenal is of a major concern.
The growing radicalisation within the military, given attacks on its own internal bases, could lead to these nuclear weapons being hijacked by radical Islamists," said Pervez Hoodbhoy, who was here for the London launch of his book 'Confronting the Bomb'.
The nuclear physicist and defence analyst estimated Pakistan's arsenal to be similar to India's, at around 120-130 warheads.

Yestrerday 40+ WB caught on #16 one gentleman had 7 over 12" on silver rooster tail spinner, said lost 2 spinners, but was taking his sore wrist and nice catch home- hoped his hand was up to cleaning them. Also said he might slip bobber fish next time, shallow. I did express sympathy and suggested BenGay and a day of rest. He looked at me quite strangely and said he`d find the strenght to cast a Winget on out there TOMMOROW (his emphisice, not mine) Would think he`s coming down with a serious case of white bass fever, literally.

Giuliani: Hillary makes Kerry look like amateur flip-flopper
ERROL, N.H. -- Campaigning in New Hampshire's North Country today, Rudy Giuliani said Hillary Clinton changes positions so much on whether or not illegal immigrants should be given driver's licenses that she out does John Kerry in being a flip-flopper.
"I remember last time John Kerry used to be accused of being a flip-flopper,. She makes him look like an amateur. She does. He looks like an amateur compared to Hillary. He flip flopped, but usually it took a week or two," Giuliani said.
Later on in the event a phone rang where he was speaking. Giuliani joked that someone should answer the phone since "I got in trouble with a cell phone before". Giuliani was referring to the time he took a phone call from his wife while he was speaking to the National Rifle Association.

Get ready to see Lara Dutta in a non-glamorous avatar. The pretty actress has portrayed a wide variety of roles and is all ready to surprise a lot of people with a minus makeup, minus glamorous look in SRK's home-production Billu Barber. "When Shahrukh called," reminisces Lara, "The first thing that struck me was, he may want to cast me in one of his international shows. But when he offered a film instead, I was zapped."However, the conversation that followed caught her by complete surprise. "He said two things while talking about the role in Billu Barber. One, it's not opposite him, but Irrfan Khan. Two, I've to portray a mother of two kids. Since I had enacted the role of a single mom in Partner, I didn't mind playing a mom of two here. And why should I have problems with Irrfan? He's an incredible actor."
[an error occurred while processing this directive]Prior to Lara, Tabu and Amisha Patel had been offered the parts, which they refused for reasons best known to the makers and the actresses. "I was fully aware of it. Their reasons for refusing the film could be anything, but I had no problems whatsoever. I had worked with Priyan-ji earlier [Bhagam Bhag] and the role offered me ample opportunity to exhibit my talent, so why should I let go of this film?," she reasons.
Post Partner, one expected Lara to go on a signing spree, but she didn't. "I was working the whole of 2008. But there's a lot to look forward to this year, starting with Billu Barber, Banda Yeh Bindaas Hai, Do Knot Disturb and Blue. Just watch out," she smiles.

"Gamitin natin ang 2013 elections para mabali na ang sobrang paghahari ng mga political dynasties na ito. It's about time na maglagay naman tayo ng mga bagong mukha at bagong pangalan sa iba't ibang lugar. Kumbaga sa handa, maganda naman na may ibang putahe," the lawmaker told Studio 23's "Iba-Balita."
Casiño believes that dynasties, which control both the economic and political landscape of a certain region, are not doing the country any good.
"Hindi maganda na masyadong namo-monopolize ng iilang pamilya lang ang kapangyarihang pampulitika sa ating bansa. Isang dahilan kaya hindi nagbabago ang ating bansa ay dahil ang may hawak na kapangyarihan sa ekonomiya at pulitikal ay pare-parehong pamilya na lang, pare-parehong interes. Kaya para sa akin, mas mabuting iba naman ang pumasok na hindi nagmumula sa mga pamilyang ito," he said.
The bill has been pending for 2 years. It underwent a second hearing at the House committee level but has not moved forward.
Casiño claimed the measure is not gaining support because of political dynasties inside the House of Representatives and Senate.
"Basically, ang Kongreso at ang Senado ay balon ng mga political dynasties. Mahigit ng mayorya, miyembro diyan ay galing sa angkan ng pulitika," Casiño said.
"Parang ito 'yung FOI [Freedom of Information] Bill, walang tumututol pero misteryosong hindi gumagalaw sa Congreso. Ibig sabihin, sumasangayon sila kung kaharap mo pero 'yung tunay nilang sentimyento ay ayaw nila," he added.
What is a political dynasty?
Casiño said political dynasties exist when a spouse of a second degree relative of an incumbent official runs for a government post in the same city or province as that of the official.
According to the bill, a political dynasty also exists when "2 or more persons who are spouses or are related within the second civil of consanguinity or affinity run simultaneously for elective public" in the same area, even if neither is related to an incumbent official.
Casiño admits that passing the bill into law may be a long shot, but he believes that if dynasties are challenged, change will soon follow.
"Aaminin ko, suntok sa buwan ito pero kailangan natin itulak. Importante na tuloy-tuloy na ilaban natin ito. Siguro balang araw dadating din ang panahon na mababago na natin ang sistemang pampulitika, pero at this point, ang labanan ay one step at a time. Siguro sa bawat eleksyon, sa bawat lugar ay i-challenge natin itong mga political dynasties," he said.
In next year's senatorial race, several candidates come from prominent political families, including the brother of incumbent Senator Pia Cayetano, Alan Peter; Jinggoy Estrada and step brother JV Ejercito; and the son of Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile, Jack Enrile.
Two relatives of President Aquino will also be running for senator--his cousin Bam Aquino and aunt Tingting Cojuangco.
House Bill 3413, however, does not cover the national level.
Running for Senate
Casiño said he is planning to file his certificate of candicacy (COC) for senator on Wednesday.
He will—literally—run from Luneta to the Commission on Elections (Comelec) office in Intramuros to file his COC to symbolize that being elected to public office is something that has to be worked for.
Casiño is running under the newly-formed MAKABAYAN (Makabayang Koalisyon ng Mamamayan) coalition.
He said he is the only member of his family running for public office in 2013.

Is that bridge a direct replacement? I've been seriously thinking of installing the graphtech ghost piezo system on mine as well.
Guitar will arrive tomorrow!!!!!! The pickups are ME, I scored on ebay. I plan to use the ME wiring as well but modded for a bridge v, neck v, master tone. I will use the ghost vol pot for the acoustic volume, it also has a mid/dark push/push feature . I also got the mag, both, piezo toggle that will be routed for as well. YES, THIS WILL BE A KEEPER.
I will let you know tomorrow when the body arrives. I awesome there maybe a tweak that would be needed, since the oversea stuff is usually metric. Since we doe not have any measurements to go on for the ZM se, I am hoping it is a direct drop in. Also, with the se bridge being nickel; i should be able to use the bridge studs along with the graph tech bridge(nickel also).
I will have a honeymoon period with it stock of course. I plan to work with the GC luthier to do the routing for the bridge leads. He is awesome. makes his own bass guitars (Shawn May basses ). GC is his day job for now!!!

I took a pass on this one today-- I think it will be too light weight for me. Here's the link--if u buy it, hook up my boy Adam Chesi with the order. He held the heaviest for me, but still too light for me--would like dude to still get the sale.
I have been playing my semi-solid guitar with full sized Seymour Duncan pickups - a JB bridge and '59 neck, both nickel covered.
I have played it cranked up relatively loud thru my Marshall DSL100H into my two by twelve Avatar Vintage cab with twin Eminence Swamp Thang speakers, with zero feedback. This guitar has two "f" holes. It sounds super great.
I would not worry about the Zack Myers SE feeding back at high volume, based just on my own experience with my semi-solid hot humbucking guitar thru the crunch channel on my Marshall.
I really want to get one of these. I need to put a plan together.

Wait, dang that's just the box, Brain guitar's you got me!!!!!
So, the victim has arrived in great condition via UPS. currently resting in the music/man cave. Pics forth coming!!!
First impression, the neck is awesome. Like Duffy stated, the neck has been sanded, and they used sanding paper. You say, "How does he know". Well there is a piece in the F-hole!!! Not sure how that was missed. Maybe i can sell it on eBay?
The flame is Awesome. As I move the guitar back and forth in the like, i am amazed by how great it looks. Very nice and book matched very well. The clear knobs look very nice as will. I will try the amber ones later to see what vibe it throws.
As for the ghost bridge--dimensions like very good, worst case, i will be able to use the stock bridge posts and studs in case the ghost are to small.
For now I plan to tuner her up and check her out with OEM purity. The honey moon starts -----NOW
EDIT: GC need to step up their game. First time I have gotten a SE from outside of GC and to get a gigbag and bag candy for this price is more than a deal. IT IS PURE AWESOMENESS. (yes i really like the word AWESOME, it sounds so, you know-- AWESOME).

Congrats! Looks great!
At least I think it does. Had my eyes dilated today so everything looks like a Sergio photo. Can't wait to see the upgrades.
Hey, can you do us all a favor when you get in there and see if the bridge is the Tonepros or PRS design? If it's the TP, it'll say AVT-II on the bottom. I assumed it was the TP at first glance , but starting to think it isn't now...

It says nothing on the bottom of the bridge. and the post are metric and the ghost bridge is US. I tried to remove the studs and DAMN those things are in there good. I will leave it to the luthier i have doing the routing to get them out. I wanted to do a dry fit on the bridge and was halted by the stock studs
The ghost has a 12 radius, i assume the stock is 10. should just be a need to play with post height, since the ghost saddle can not be filed

Hello Wardog, cool guitar! Before you take off the studs, take a look on the Graphtech site: "Our Resomax Wraparound bridges currently ship with imperial posts and bushings. However a metric option is available upon special request (contact email@example.com).
*Typically North American made instruments are equipped with imperial, and International made instruments are equipped with metric posts and bushings.

Find fun things to doin the Austin, TX area
Updated: 8:06 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 26, 2013 | Posted: 8:06 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 26, 2013
American-Statesman Staff
Remnants of Austin's rural past pop up everywhere. Walkers know the signs: larger than usual lots, bigger trees, structures predating all the others in the area.
The most visible vestige of that past in the Duval Springs area of North Austin is Switch Willo Stables, a wooded wonderland of equestrian culture that would look at home in Old Virginia or even Old England.
Although it dates back at least to the 1960s, the bewitchingly named Switch Willo (spelled without the expected final "w") was hardly the first settlement in the area. During the 19th century, a sizable farming community called Duval thrived here on the International and Great Northern Railroad near Big Walnut Creek.
So what happened? Nowadays, Duval Road between MoPac Boulevard and U.S. 183 — just northwest of the Domain — is lined with office buildings, large apartment complexes and handsomely maintained neighborhoods. Yet here once stood a full town with school, churches and stores.
"My dad would use a stick and poke around in the dirt where a store sat," says reader Anna Kemp Galloway, who lived on this land in the 1940s and again in the 1960s. "We'd dig up old molten glass."
Turns out, the glass remnants came from a big fire that destroyed most of the town of Duval around 1900. The store that burned 60 years before Galloway's childhood stood on what is now Whispering Valley Road. Nearby, Duval Road formerly cut across the railroad.
Neither Galloway nor I — nor the folks at the Austin History Center — can date the conflagration precisely. Galloway remembers a features story about the fire published in the American-Statesman during the 1960s or '70s. We are still looking for it.
Here's what the Handbook of Texas says about Duval — not to be confused with fabled Duval County in South Texas or Duval Street, which heads north from the University of Texas campus through the Hyde Park neighborhood:
"The site was settled in 1875 and was named for local store owner Douglas Duval. A post office moved there in 1877 from Mount Juliet, and James A. Wright served as postmaster. By the mid-1880s the community had a district school, three churches, three stores and 75 residents. Stone and cedar were the principal commodities shipped from the area. The population of Duval was estimated at 50 in 1890 and at 35 in 1899. The Duval post office was discontinued in 1902, and mail for the community was sent to McNeil. The area that made up the Duval community was annexed by the city of Austin in the mid-1970s."
No mention of the fire. Yet the entry does explain the large quarry lakes nearby in the Balcones Woods neighborhood. (The Handbook cites John J. Germann and Myron Janzen's 1986 "Texas Post Offices by County" as its source.)
Galloway's family moved to a farm here in 1933. She kept records of the families — Duvals, Kemps, McDonalds, Pilands — who bought and sold this land. She and her brother sold it in 1973.
"I got with Marce Morrow who was a young man when the last of the town just dried up and left," Galloway recalls. "He said his grandmother lived there after the fire in a tent and he was taken there to be with her when his youngest sister was born."
On what occasions did her father dig for molten glass?
"We would sit near the county road waiting for either the mail carrier or the milk carrier," Galloway says. "We would place cans of milk by the county road and get cans of whey from the Round Rock Cheese Factory truck. Can you believe that some times they would put the check paying for our milk on the top of a return can with a rock to hold it down?"
We know that Duval was completely gone by 1938, when the highway department published a map of Travis County that can be found at UT's Perry Castañeda Library and is easily accessible as part of the library's invaluable online collection.
The map shows Austin's northern city limits at about 51st Street. But all the little towns above it have faded away, towns whose names were recycled for thoroughfares like Duval are here — Fiskville, McNeil, Dessau — as well as bergs new to me, such as Abercrombie, Fromme and Water's Park (which should be spelled "Watter's Park," according to Galloway).
But no Duval or, alternately, Duval Station, by 1938. Now, folks, the last of this town and other rural remnants like it exist within living memory. In 25 years, that memory will be gone.
Which is why it so important to keep asking friends who lived here back then: What do you recall from 60, 70, 80 or 90 years ago?

Non-uniformity of job-matching in a transition economy: A nonparametric analysis for the Czech Republic
We consider problems in modelling job-matching in the Czech Republic during the transition to a market economy. Special interest is devoted to functional form considerations and the analysis of returns to scale of the matching function. This explorative study aims to shed some light into the black-box of the matching technology by applying nonparametric estimation techniques which relax distributional assumptions. Nonparametric additive modelling enables us to evaluate the matching process locally for each combination of the underlying matching factors, rather than being restricted to global parameters. We apply these techniques to a rich panel of monthly observations of unemployment vacancies and unemployment-to-job exits in all 76 labor market districts in the Czech Republic between January 1992 and September 1996, and find non-linearities in the partial adjustment process as well as a partially negative coefficient of unemployment outows with respect to vacancies in some years. Moreover, we find locally increasing returns to scale in job-matching, which may be responsible for multiple equilibrium unemployment rates in the Czech Republic during the transformation process. --Download Info

Trek 7000
anaheim flash
thinking about getting one to replace my schwinn.
just wanted to share, that is all.
Sounds good. However, if you can afford it, go for the FX line. It will pay off in the long run. Ask me how I know...................
anaheim flash
how do you know?
Give a lot of thought to what Clyde said. I bought a 7100 because I considered it more comfortable than the FX series that I test rode. However, I think I made the wrong choice. For my type of riding, suspension is just not needed. That said, it is a comfortable bike for me. I just wish I had given performance more weight in my decision. Fortunately, I have since also bought a vintage road bike and a Trek 520 so all is basically well.
anaheim flash
no suspension for me.....the 7000 is a fixed fork, and really really basic. 7-speed freewheel, and all the other points that would include (tho i have a much much nicer RD to replace the tourney it comes with, and changing to an IRD freewheel is as close as my toolbox)
Yes, you have a rigid. However, the shock post & seat were the 1st thing I got tired of. I broke the nylon pedals in about 2 weeks. Ditching the freewheel is a plus too. However, the factory rims are single wall & very prone to deflection problems / popping spokes.
I have a 7000 (if you haven't figured it out yet), and although I enjoy it, the more I rode it, the more I found myself changing out parts. So far I've changed out the bars, neck (comes loose alot), pedals, rear rim, tires, seat, seat post,etc..The bike got be back into riding after a long hiatus, but having to do it over, I'd buy the FX to skip all the "upgrades" and save some money while still having a fun, yet comfortable bike to ride.
I've got Trek 7300 and the crappy components on it break all the time. so far I've replaced the handlebars, pedals, cranks, shock seatpost and the entire drive train. the wheels aren't that good, the suspension fork sucks, the rubber shift grips have gotten all gummy and the stock seat is one of the most uncomfortable saddles I've ever sat on.
hybrids. meh.
anaheim flash
well, here goes....i am looking for decent to move parts from a x-mart schwinn to a better (?) frame (i hope)
i use pedals with toe clips, so those would be going....the origin 8 space bar with a threadless adaptor would be going on it...an fsa seatpost to replace the bouncy one....the above mentioned RD to replace the tourney (which is no where near as bad as people make it out to be).
the trouble with the rims does worry me.
so maybe i get a bikes direct windsor then....
Well, if you have the parts, go for it. The rim has been an issue partly due to the fact that I'm 6'4 235 LBS.
I just didn't want you to go through what I did, not knowing. Like I said, I enjoy the bike, but I had to make changes.
anaheim flash
customizing bikes?!?!?!?!
OMG who does that?!?!?!
some kind of nutcase....
seriously, my budget is way constrained. i am thiking about changing the frozen cheap-a** suspension fork from the x-mart schwinn to a rigid, but that is a whole can-o-worms i am not sure i am ready to open. i do the car-free thing, so information on the Trek and longevity is appreciated a whole lot. plus, the Trek is available locally and (hopefully) i can get fitted rather than off the shelf at x-mart.
i have been looking at the windsor stratford, tho.
FWIW, I've had a Trek 7000 for two years and commute on it to work about 3x/week, 6 miles each way.
The pedals are its weakest link. One broke, and I replaced both with better ones.
But otherwise, it's done just fine. I, too, would go with an FX if I were to do it over again - I find myself trying to make the 7000 "imitate" the FX by shoving its handlebars down and forward, etc. But for what it is, the 7000 is just fine - I think it's in a great spot, price-wise and feature-wise, for people making the transition from toy-department bikes to bike-store bikes.
anaheim flash
oh....so, is the 7000 a sit up and beg, or....?
i do like a "sporting" position." not roadie style, but not english gentleman, either....
i might.....MIGHT be able to stretch to the fx 7.1 (it is the same price as the specialized crosstrails i have looked at)
(i will defend my schwinn by stating it has served me well, upgrades have gone well, but the cheap suspension, and lack of available information on it is a pain in the backside. cheapest way out is to do the rigid fork, but what if the BB goes? what size? questions like that....)
The frame itself seems to be the same set up (geometry) as the fitness bikes, rather than the sloping top tube of the more comfort - oriented ones. So, you can get a sportier position out of it (dropping the neck, setting the seat right, etc will help too) but more so with the neck adapter, shorter rise bar and standard seat post. It's not a beach cruiser.
So, echoing what I said, the 7000 has been a good bike for me for the last 2 years. I usually ride 15 - 20miles on it a night 5 days a week and am now averaging 16 mph. A big change from when I bought it. The more I rode, the faster / further / more efficient I wanted to become (go figure). As a result, I replaced a lot of parts.
Perhaps I came off bashing the bike at first. That was not my goal. So, take your pick. Just choose wisely. an extra 100 bucks now seems to = 300 down the road.
From the bike shop, the 7000's handlebars are slightly above the seat; its saddle is overstuffed.
Not so with the FX series.
However, the 7000 isn't a beach cruiser or English 3-speed "sit up and beg" design, either.
I've been as far as 20 miles in one day on my 7000 (haven't tried anything longer); I've been up to 30 mph on a downhill; I've carried dozens of pounds of equipment and groceries on the rear rack I installed, plus myself.
It's a capable bike. It's not the most efficient or "fastest", but then it's also pretty inexpensive.
If you can afford the FX and like it better, then go with the FX. You should ride both. I did; I liked the FX better; I didn't want to pay that much. I was quite happy to settle for the 7000 because it was such a big step up from anything I'd ever owned up to that point and it was certainly "good enough". Even though I now would like something a little more aggressive, it still is.
anaheim flash
cool all around....thanks everyone
Did someone forget to lock the Troll-Cage? I see it's back again.
anaheim flash
troll cage...?
for whom?
Not for you. Think of the word: "Negativeness" and scroll back a few.
I own a Trek Multitrack 7000 that I bought in 2005. Now has several thousand miles on it. Originally purchased just to run around town with the with the 2004 Trek Navigator 100 used for trail rides. The lighter 7000 seemed ideal for quick trips around town in traffic.
After I bought it I did have two spokes fail in the rear wheel which the LBS took care of under the warranty. Trek, and others, had some spoke problems due to a batch of steel used to make them. But after the two spoke failures there have been no problems with them.
After I wore out the original Bontrager tires that came on it I switched over to Continental Travel Contact tires. A bit high priced but they made a big improvement in how the bike pedals and handles. I use the 7000 on asphalt streets and trails and "stone dust" trails. An average ride is usually between 40 and 50 miles in a day. Traded out the cushy seat for a road bike type seat. For the price it is tough to beat if I just want a day out on a trail.
Not for you. Think of the word: "Negativeness" and scroll back a few.
just trying to keep people from wasting their money on Trek 7000 series hybrids is all; I've become extremely dissatisfied with mine after a lengthy multi-year trial (2001 model bought new, ridden through ~06 or 07) and thought people could learn from my experiences.
I ride a completely different bike now which would also classify as a hybrid that I'm very happy with, but I don't particularly self-identify as a hybrid rider, not sure why anyone would want to do that.
If your job was working on a hog-farm, with the task of collecting the sperm of prize-winning hogs to perpetuate the line, I'm pretty sure that you'd like to be called a "hybrid rider."
Actually I've never heard a person being identified as any sort of rider - except in print perhaps. I find 'cyclist' or 'bicycle-rider' in use. But not to the degree of specification of a particular type of bicycle.
roadies, freak bikers, BMXers and MTB riders are all identified by the types of bikes they ride. hybrids are kind of like the bastard child of road bikes and mountain bikes, and do neither all that well, IMO. I prefer European-style city bikes which are similar to but more than subtly different from US market hybrids. I've got an Irish made Trek L400 city bike built for the European market, which I like a whole lot better than my Trek 7300 hybrid built for the US market.
"I ride a completely different bike now which would also classify as a hybrid that I'm very happy with, but I don't particularly self-identify as a hybrid rider, not sure why anyone would want to do that."
This statement simply doesn't make sense. Secondly, if it took approximately 6 years to come to the conclusion that the bike was inappropriate, then one must assume that either the tester doesn't know what he or she was looking for or didn't know that he or she was looking at all. Perhaps oblivious is a better word.
Obviously one is entitled to have an opinion. But to blatantly write off a whole series of bikes that many people enjoy so as to rattle one's own cage is small minded in the least.
One of my bikes is a 2009 Trek 7003. It is not for everyone. Nor is the right bike for me in certain situations. But to mindlessly tell people to not buy any bike in the series is irresponsible if not just plain silly. I think the latter applies.
whatever, it's an internet forum and everyone has their own opinion, Trek is a huge corporation and I'm sure they make a lot of good bikes as well as crappy ones
PS - and panthers is correct, I am trolling a bit, but that's just because people take this chit way too seriously...

Apparently not as seriously as you though.
If you don't like hybrids, why do you bother posting here? What is it that you hope to accomplish by doing so?
You've been spending way to much time in the Politics & Religion forum. You've forgotten how to get along with "real" people, man. Stay out of there for a few weeks - then you may re-socialize your persona. Maybe your dog will stop growling at you, too. And stop burying your morning paper in the neighbor's yard.
y'all are way too sensitive, I think you have self esteem issues 'cause you're riding hybrids and not road bikes

y'all are way too sensitive, I think you have an self esteem issues 'cause you're riding hybrids and not road bikes
coolness. i have no problems with what i ride, or how, or anything else. my current bike is a schwinn midmoor, and i have done centuries on it, ridden down "roadies" who don;t get the concept that a once or twice a week toy ride will never get you past a full-time rider, no matter the name on the bike or your jersey. (i do live where there are no hills tho, so several advantages to them are missing in this case)
it is ME that is the engine, and no drops with your nose scraping the front, plastic, or hollow anything is gonna do you any good if i wanna run you down and chat.
i like the looks of the 7000, simple and easy to service. bikes had quill stems and freewheels far longer than threadless, and most seem to have lasted longer than anything i have seen so far. and a lugged nitto is pretty just to look at. (okay, maybe not on a 7000....)
i have, as i said before, looked into the windsor stratford as well, tho i do not know if it will carry a load of groceries and pull my bob trailer or not....still thinking. if anyone has advice on that, sing out. cannot hurt.
thinking of the 7.1 as well, tho that would strain the budget i have set in my mind. only real difference between the 7000 and the fx is the threadless headset. they both are running the same freewheel and frame material....
ah well, much to think on before the week is out.
i'm sure i will end up chickening out and just changing my fork out on the schwinn :lol:
y'all are way too sensitive, I think you have self esteem issues 'cause you're riding hybrids and not road bikes
I don't give a **** what I ride as long as it aint broke.
I ride a completely different bike now which would also classify as a hybrid that I'm very happy with, but I don't particularly self-identify as a hybrid rider, not sure why anyone would want to do that.
To distinguish oneself from people like you?
Hey guys, I just hit 50. Its been years since I rode but I used to love it. I have test rode many bikes lately. I believe hybrid is the way to go for me (long rides around town and hopefully more). I'm looking at the Trek 7100 and the Giant Cypress. I'm leaning towards the trek 7100 because it leans towards fast as opposed to the Cypress leaning towards comfort. This thread is roughly stating the same thing with regards to the fx 7.1 as opposed to the 7100. I compared the 7100 specs to the FX 7.1. I really didn't see too much difference. Is this newbie missing something?
Hybrids that swing towards the mountain-bike side of the spectrum, such as the Trek 7000-series, generally have suspension in the front fork, and beefier tires that invite doing some off-roading.
Hybrids that swing towards the road-bikes don't, usually, have suspension and sport thinner tires. And they are capable of going quite fast while still inviting some off-roading on hard-pack dirt and gravel trails. These can be represented by the Trek FX-series.
My wife and I bought a Trek 7000 and a Trek 7000WSD last spring we rode them all over town and on an old rail bed trail, I've ridden mine on a 7 mile each way trail about 2 or 3 times a week all summer pluss for most of my intown comuting (live in a smaller midwest town) I've pulled my kids in a trailer with it and my wife has with hers as well. Now I will admit we arn't putting 100 pluss miles a week on them but for what we do we love them.
anaheim flash
the 7000 does not have a suspension front fork, the 7100 and up do.
and i am glad to hear you guys like your treks....i still like them, tho i have not bought one as of yet.
Just a personal opinion, but I prefer the 7XX series.
I have a Trek 7100 and I liked it a year ago, when I first started riding again. Then I got a Giant FCR and thought the 7100 was a big clumsy lummox of a bike. Now I have been riding it off road on rough not quite mountain bike trails, and I like it again. For the trails I am riding, it is about right. I am in no hurry on these trails and feel that the suspension softens the ride. I also ride it on the road on occasion, and it makes me appreciate the Giant more. As another poster mentioned, this series is more oriented to the mountain bike or at least trail portion of the hybrid spectrum than the road portion. I wouldn't even consider taken the Giant on the trails I am riding the Trek on.

"I was looking for a design that could be a "social" card rather than a business card, and this design was easy to adapt. And . . . red is my favorite color!"
"Thank you so much tiny prints! All around a good experience. Your site and templates were so easy to navigate and adjust. Your options were just what i needed and your customer service is impeccable. Thank you so much for the timely proofing and shipping, im a 100% pleased customer with what i chose. Looking forward to doing more business with you guys. Thanks again!! :):) ."
"I was looking for something that was simple and beautiful at the same time. I came across this card and knew it was what I wanted. The detail with the color of the name along with the thin lines adds such a nice touch. I was not expecting such a good quality with the paper and was pleasantly surprised. I already have recommended this card along with the site to my friends. Thank you!"
"Great product and customer service simply fabulous! Even if there is an ocean in between, you seem to be around the corner! Recommended without doubts! Thanks a lot!"

Nick Gordon -- Whitney Houston's "adopted" son -- was asked squarely today about his relationship with Bobbi Kristina.
Nick and Bobbi ran some errands and grabbed a Starbucks in Atlanta. They are holding hands at times. At one point, while Bobbi Kristina waits in the car, Nick makes a coffee run and a photog asks a bunch of questions about the relationship.
Watch Nick's expressions as he answers.
Oh puh-lease! You know he's dipped into that more often than the guy behind the counter at the Baskin-Robbins has gone for the RockyRoad!
Not watching it - Did he say "yea, but man she got all Whitney's money! I would be stupid to not try to dig some gold!"
Don't you know that "adopted" means that they are NOT related? What is the story here that you have to invade this young ladies life?
At what time did they ask "Point blank" "Are you banging BK" ? I must have missed that part....
I watched his face... and got nothing.
By the way, that's what you're calling 'asked squarely', TMZ? Please - your headline is so misleading here.
she thinks it is a coincidence that he started hitting on her after he got word of the inheritance? she is so ugly i know they never fooled around until after she got news of the inheritance, OMG she is so ugly look at her legs rubbing together when she walks, i remember her as a kid shovelling lobster with drenched in hella butter down her throat on their reality show , SO EFFIN UGLY !
This has to be a joke...HE DIDN'T SAY ANY THING! Thanks for wasting 2 minutes of my life with this. Makes me less likely to click any more of your videos.
I'm telling you - this girl will run through all the money she gets faster than her momma did. Like mother like daughter...same ****ed up choices and complete lack of responsibility.
C'mon guys, you know they have been knocking boots BEFORE Whitney died. That a moot question. I read Whitney took Nicholas in when he was 11 or 12 years old but NEVER ADOPTED HIM.
As long as they are not related..and they are not....it is NOT incest. Is it still creepy? Yes, but with all that money she has coming to her..what do they care. Move it along..next story please.
