I bought the Musashi one year and 4,000 miles ago! I'm still excited about riding this bike! I definitely made the right choice. I've ridden around 350 miles so far this year, thanks to the unusually warm weather we are enjoying.
Here are the details from my very first at home ride on the Musashi: Ride Details
I remember being disapointed in the speed ( I averaged 14.6 mph over 30 miles), I was facing a strong wind from the West and wasn't quite used to the new ride.
Below is a catchup listing of the rides so far this year. I started a new 'motto' on the last couple of rides: Sprint up the hills. It has really made a difference as you can see on April 3rd, my first ever round trip with an average over 21 mph. I've had longer trips with higher averages, but never a complete round trip at this speed.
I haven't decided on any goals for the year yet. I'm just happy for the early warm weather.
