3 out of 5 stars a heads up about Cuba   March 7, 2006
 1 out of 6 found this review helpful

I took a cheaper mountain bike that was fixed up for riding on the road to cuba. No doubt that riding around havana is a pleasant way to go. However on the longer one day rides(Veradero to Cienfuego) I found the bike allot less appropriate to the airconditioned buses zooming by. There were moments riding eastward towards Trinidad that justified this style of traveling, however whichever direction I went there seemed to be a headwind. The local kids know this and rode my back wheel whenever they could. I saw one other cyclist on the road with a high end bike. No doubt they intended to take their bike back home. I elected to give it away before returning, I hope you do the same.
