I did not ride it. He did not have the model I was interested in in the size that I needed. He did have the exact one I was interested for in the back needing to be put together though and generously offered to put it together for me to ride it the next time that I come in. However with me still looking around, not knowing fully what I am looking for I want to check into some other options and maybe get you to come out with me one day to look at what all is available before I make a decision.

Helmet.. yes... I rode a bike yesterday for the first time in many years and I can not forsee me trying to go over rocks without one.
