So here she is!! I picked her up yesterday! :D I decided to go with the Dolce. I was so much more comfortable on this bike then on the Allez. You can't see in the picture very well but she is white and yellow with a white seat. Not sure how long the seat will stay white though!! :p
K! I am going out to ride!! Thank you all for your advice and support while I was shopping for the perfect bike!

Have fun on your ride! Pretty bike!
Very nice. ENJOY.
I'm thinking---BEE THEME. Switch out the saddle and bar tape to black. The saddlebag is fine. YOu should call the bike "Sting."
That isn't a bad idea to switch those out. I actually hadn't thought of that.Quote:

That is a very pretty bike! Glad to hear you saved it as you fell ;) Hope the road rash clears quickly <ouch>
Gilly :-)
BEE-utiful! Congratulations!
Must have been a bummer to go down on such a lovely new bike! Glad she's okay (and you, too!).
I'd stick with the white. It's really pretty.
Nice- very nice!!!! What a beautiful ride!!!! :D
Sting is a good name- you can use it as a noun (I rode Sting this morning) as a verb (my bike stung the road yesterday), as an adverb (Sting's moving so stingingly fast that I couldn't see who was riding it) or as an adjective (you're stinger fast bike is amazing). Sorry- I just got done reviewing parts of speech with the students and my brain hasn't shut off.
Enjoy your new best pal!!!!
What a sweet bike. She looks like she has a sunny disposition.:) Have lots of fun rides.
Woohoo!!!!! Very purty bike! :D :D :cool:
Really love the color, and also the shape of the top tube. Enjoy!
This bike is so much fun to ride! Thank you all for the encouragement and the props. :cool:
I've had a bit of a shaky start on the clipless pedals (my first pair) but I know with some practice I will get used to them. :)
BTW-nice word usage Tri Girl! Sting is proving to be quite versatile! :D
I know, I love the top tube also! It's very girly....like me! :pQuote:

I think you will be pleased as punch to have a WSD bike.
I'm on a Specialized Sequoia and our LBS just got in a new shipment of '08's. I would love to test ride a Dolce. It looks so cool, clean and quick!
Have a great weekend ride. :)
