This is one of the very few photos I have of myself riding the bike. Most of the time I'm completely solo on the bike so unless my husband tries to take some before or after my rides, I don't have many.

ok, here is the only photo i have of me on a bike (second from left) :eek: . explanation - one of our group likes to wear headgear on her helmet to celebrate festivities... we wore reindeer ears at xmas and bunny ears at easter! We look a bit dorky, but the plus side was lots of kids got very excited when they saw us, so next year we are going to carry easter eggs to give out to the kids.

ps hope this works.. now i know why others say that!

Just curious, BZ. Are you going to stand there with a sign and what name will you use? :D

I'm thinking not on the bike shorts on the plane SK :rolleyes:

Can you imagine the looks she'll get if she holds up a sign that says "FishDr"???

I'm thinking of the look she'll give if more than one person walks up.:p

yes, if it's on your computer you have to do the attachment manager which is not near as cool.

Love Love Love the headgear idea! And only 82 shopping/decorating/costuming days left until Halloween!!!

I LOVE all these pictures and it's great to be able to put faces to names!

I don't have a picture of me riding my bike but this picture is just before I left on my first ride on the new road bike. Hope I do this right. :)

OK, I'll play too.

Here's Walter (he's a Raleigh) and me. We were rounding the corner into the parking lot after a 34-or-so mile ride a couple years ago.

Attachment 1231

This is William and me at the turn-around of our July 4 ride this year.

Attachment 1232

On the trail on the same ride. This is really all that DH sees of me.

Attachment 1233

I think these pictures put to rest the silly notion that fat ladies can't ride.

theav - love the pic. Im sure the kids got a big kick out of the ears and Im sure they will love easter eggs, you could get quite a following.

Is that Canberra I can see in the background. Looks like a nice ride you are doing in the photo.

Great pictures everyone! This one is from when I went to Hawaii in March to pick up my new time trial bike.[ATTACH]1234[/ATTACH

This is so much fun looking at all the pics. Here are a few from a time trial I did the last two years. First year I started out in the pouring rain, sorry it's from the back. This year it was nice and sunny but I will only share a pic of me on the trainer.

Ok - back on topic, sort of - the only pictures of me on my bike are scattered here and there on the ride threads (thanks to Jobob!).

Everyone looks so happy.
Here is the bike leg of the last triathlon I did. Not sure that it's very flattering, but never mind.

Looks good to me, Bron! :D That's a Bianchi, right?

Thank you! That's what I like about this forum, everyone is so nice!
The bike is a bianchi "dama bianca". I've always wanted a bianchi and when I saw this one, well that was it... Fortunately my husband understands and falls into the "that was a good deal" camp and not the "you spent how much on a bike?"

Yeah - it is a fish health meeting that I'm going to. Umm, might rethink the sign ;)

Mine is a Bianchi Veloche...I didn't know much about them before I got it, but what a sweet ride it is! I'd been riding my Marin Larkspur hybrid in triathlons for two years. I've ridden one sprint on the Bianchi, and have my first Oly with her next weekend. Imagine how much faster I'll go!

Oh, Walter Raleigh--I get it. And do you call him "Sir Walter"? LOL

Let's hear it for FLOR (fat ladies who ride)!:D

Here is a pic of me before I found out that it IS POSSIBLE to pedal at 2 mph and not fall over.... DH and I were on one of our epics, and about to climb Jefferson Notch (which is the highest road elevation in the state of NH, and is unpaved).

Good Grief! Sorry so huge! :p

Great picture! I have the same color handle bars on my bike and I am having a hard time finding a jersey to match...any ideas? :D

This really scares me. I'm such a fair-weather cyclist. I've ridden roads in Alaska & NZ with snow, but nothing like this. You're a complete and total stud in my book (or just crazy). Wow!

oh my gosh! I LOVE the headwear... and mary that costume is AWESOME! :D You must have had people howling with laughter (yeah, pun intended... I'm corny that way ;) )

So, here is another of me if I may be so bold... my Xmas Eve Century with my brother, BigKahunaDad, for those who know him from other forums...

I got all ready and walked to where he was and he choked on his drink and started laughing... we sang Jingle Bells and had a great time! I have to say it's tough covering the helmet vents when it's still 8o degrees out tho! :eek: :D

I love some of the scenery in the pics you ladies have... man, all the roadside wildflowers etc are amazing...:)

Actually I have a milllion cool photos of me on a bike but for the life of me I can't figure out how to post them. I'll give a go tonight.

Yes... I am technically challenged!

hello, another photo

Hello - sorry it is sort of grainy. It was a disposable camera we had with us last weekend at the Pan Mass Challenge...
