Yikes! Bikes!
Schwinn 564, circa 1988, 14 spd. -- 36 spoke pair Shimano wheelset. 32 spoke pair Shimano wheelset. 700 x 23c tires. I like this bike on the flats. It's old school and nice to ride, reliable.
Trek 1500, 2005. 27 spd. -- Two pair, Bontrager Race wheelsets. 18 spoke front, 22 spoke rear. 700 x 23c tires. We're concerned about the wheels. These types had been cracking rims. This bike is lighter, more gears. I need to get it up to speed so I can trust the wheels on the road.
These days, 25 miles is about the right distance, two days in a row. Then I need a day of recovery. We're hoping to log some miles, extend distance, and improve recovery intervals.
