Cannondale Super V 900 - 1995 model

Cannondale Super V 900

Also called Deep Purple, since the color is deep purple that fades to black.

The bike is just great for off-road riding. With it's front and rear suspension, I almost fly over roots and rocks on the trails nearby Trondheim.

During winter I also use the bike to get some training tours on the roads. I usually go for a ride on the roads when the temperature is just below 0 deg. Centigrade. Then I avoid wet conditions (since I hate to wash my bike), and I avoid road riding if it gets too cold, since I have problem with cold feets. The problems is that during the last few years, the roadsa are being salted more and more. So they are almost always wet even if the temperature is below 0. And we all know what salt can do to a bike...
