It’s a Trek FX1, and I’ve been pretty much riding every chance I get. I’m already looking toward a road or endurance bike for next season, but I’m going to enjoy my hybrid for the rest of this year

Nice, I have a Trek Verve2 that I ride for an hour daily (roughly 10 mile ride). Recently got my wife a used Trek FX7.2 (for $200 in almost new unridden condition in the classifieds!) because I was curious to buy an FX for myself.

Gotta say that the FX7.2 is certainly a faster bike than my Verve2 - I now have to pedal harder to keep up with her compared to her old walmart-special shwinn bike!

The ride position on the Trek FX is a bit different from the Verve, but I enjoy both. Just picked up another used Trek Verv3 in the classifieds (rough shape, but only paid $140) and working to restore it to riding condition

Nice! Also am I reading that right, 1200 calories?

Probably Strava guesstimated that calorie count. If it’s being calculated out of heart rate for example, it’s not quite accurate. If it’s calculated out of distance and their weight, might also be off.

I see cadence but no power meter so I wouldn’t count on those calories being correct.

I’m 155lbs and in about 2 hours at 17mph it was a little over 800 calories on Zwift using the trainer.
