My New Bike

Just wanted to share my excitement as I finally got my new bike this weekend. Its not extremely high end, but it was within my budget and most important it is the correct frame size. Isn't she beautiful?! :p

GORGEOUS! :D I love that color.

Now, all that snow just needs to melt off of Wolf Creek Pass!!

P.S. Is that a compact double? Did you get climbing lunch plate like I have for the canyons??

Ha ha ha. Well I will definitely keep Wolf Creek as a goal. I am much heavier and more out of shape than the last time I attempted it. But even though I was the slowest, I still enjoyed the ride. Such a beautiful area.

Yes, it is indeed a compact double. They changed it to a 12x27 (whatever that means :p ) and said it will give me one more gear to click to when I'm climbing.

It looks tiny, is it? I love the color! My bike also has a 12-27 but I need something bigger. Once the chainrings are replaced I think I will go mountain gearing like 11-34 or something silly. I am such a hill slug. :p

What a beauty! (love the blue!!)

If you have any real hills over there (sorry , didn't check your location first) ask your LBS if they could switch the 27 for a 28 (12-28).. I just had my highest one switched out for a 28 and it does help!

Please, tell me we've all been imagining the Wasatch Range and the Oquirrhs (and the Utah state legislature) all this time!!! A collective halucination!
