1999 Specialized Crossroads Sport.

This is the bike I bought to replace the Impact, my Old Faithful. I must have been taken with the graceful curvature of the frame, or the notion that I was somehow a "hybrid" kind of guy. From the beginning, though, this bike and I just didn't click. Don't get me wrong — it was great to have a new bike again — but during the first few weeks of riding I had to return it several times to The Bicycle Trip (the shop in Santa Cruz where I'd bought it) because spokes kept breaking on me; later on the seat-post suspension began to stick, as well. I don't know, maybe I'm being too hard. I think at the time I just felt guilty for practically giving my Impact away in favor of something more sleek and polished.

I used this bike to commute to work for perhaps the last year or so that I was in Santa Cruz. When I left for Japan in July of 2000, I left the bike with Chad on indefinite loan.

We actually rented these after we returned the other bikes. It only cost us $20 for the day, but I felt like a douche-bag riding this stupid bike. We just used the bikes to ride down to the beach and check crap out so they served their purpose. Naples is a very bicycle friendly town so it's just easier to cruise around by the beaches on bikes.

These stupid cruiser style bikes are very popular down there. I bet 80% of the bikes I saw were like these, and about half were single speed.

For only the second time in the series' history, CMT has partnered with Big Machine Label Group's Republic Nashville to release CMT CROSSROADS: TRAIN AND MARTINA MCBRIDE to DVD. The DVD features seven performances from the chart-topping rockers Train and country queen Martina McBride, including their collaborations on such hits as Train's "Hey, Soul Sister," "Marry Me" and "Drops of Jupiter (Tell Me)," along with Martina's "A Broken Wing" and "Wrong Baby Wrong." The DVD also includes extended interviews with the artists, and two never-before-seen performances. The show was taped before a live audience in Nashville last year, and debuted on CMT in November. In 2009, CMT released CMT CROSSROADS: TAYLOR SWIFT AND DEF LEPPARD on DVD with Big Machine Label Group's Big Machine Records. Train and Martina join an elite group of performers who have taped CMT CROSSROADS, which pairs country music stars with popular artists from other genres - pop, rock, R&B - to play together, swap stories and share their common love of music. Martina was recently nominated for the 2011 CMT Music Awards CMT Performance of the Year from CMT CROSSROADS: TRAIN AND MARTINA MCBRIDE. CMT CROSSROADS is produced by Tom Forrest and Kathryn Russ. John Hamlin, Margaret Comeaux and Bill Flanagan serve as executive producers for CMT.
