Well, Claire and I have spent the last three days down in Southern California checking out the new 2015 line of Giant Bicycles and gear. It is always an exciting time of the year for us. Even though it is hard to get away from the shop during this busy time, it does give us a little boost and a chance to demo some incredible bikes.

The first evening Claire and I both chose to take out Giant’s newest carbon endurance bike. I was on a Defy Advanced and Claire was on the Avail Advanced. Both bikes were equipped with hydraulic road brakes from Shimano. We did a challenging ride out to the beach for a BBQ set up by the folks at Giant.

Later in the evening I got a little crazy on a Giant Reign.
