After 8 strollers for the baby, nobody would worry about 3 little bikes. LOLQuote:

I'm betting that Lady Hamilton will have the n+1 bike itch soon then. In a few years, she will probably be another Trek Diana :DQuote:

Very nice! That color *is* nice.
HEY! As much as I love that bike, and I went into my LBS and petted it, I just bought a new Jeep and I pick it up tomorrow. No new bikes this month :)Quote:

And major kudos to Specialized for managing to fit two water bottle cage mounts on a small (or was that an XS?) frame. My S Cannondale Quick only has one. Poopyheads. :)
Congratulations! Very pretty color. :)
Congrats on the Vita Elite. Love the color too.
I just ordered the Vita Elite in that gorgeous Blackberry color. It's replacing my Trek FX 7.3. As much as I like my Trek, I can't take the constant squealing and needing to adjust the disc brakes. I love the discs on my mtb, but they are not working for me on my commute. Maybe it's a bad disc, but I just got fed up with the amount of attention they needed every day.
Oh, no. You...you... I'm speechless :D And congratulations!Quote:

The Jeep is white so everything matches :) I already sold the Trek to a girl at work. She took it home today. The Vita will be in mid-week next week and it will be my new commuter. I'll be in Palo Alto - meetings at Stanford - up until then so I won't be commuting anyway.Quote:

But, hey, she did sell one off while a new one is coming in.
I'm sure all of TeamEstrogen is awaiting to see if your n+1 bike number grows past six.
Hey! I know it sounds like a lot, but I have a road bike and mountain bike in each house and a commuter bike to ride to work. The last two purchases have been replacements for bikes I sold, so they weren't in addition to what I already had.Quote:

Even if for one of the cities I don't visit as much (because I lack enough vacation days) ...it still saves me bucks annually to ship the bike so I can go cycling daily for 1-3 wks. (or renting a bike that fits me. Finding a bike to rent that fits me is a real headache.). And a public share bike won't do it, since we inevitably go for a mini bike tour trip out of town or for long multi-hr. rides.
I also forgot to mention that I think that TrekDiana is morphing into SpecializedDiana
:)
I have to mention that I totally enjoy teasing TrekDiana because she seems to take jokes done at her expense well.
