PICTURES! PICTURES! PICTURES! She's finally unveiled!

TAH DAH!!! Here are the long anticipated pictures of my new Baby. That's what I call her. Baby. :) She's a Cannondale CAAD 9 with Dura Ace components and PINK stuff on her! :D She weighed 16.60 at the bike shop with what was probably a slightly lighter saddle, no saddle bag or bottle cages. I'm sure she's still under 17, though. She's SO nice to ride and so PURDY too!!!

Here she is hanging in the "bike closet" next to DH's Cannondale SystemSIX. His and Hers! :)

And then there's the tandem and DH's new MTB, also hanging out.

And we can't leave out the kids. They have to have their bikes, too! So, that's 6 bikes total, unless you cout the tandem as 1 1/2, then it's 6 1/2!

And here I am, sitting at my computer on the Team Estrogen site! (It just so happens! DH was testing the camera on me, so I thought I'd throw it in there!)

Hope you enjoyed the pics of our "bike family"! Especially the PINK one!!! :D

Love the colors of your new bike, congrats!

Wow, pretty bike!!!

Niiiiiice! Let us know how you like that saddle, too.

I have that saddle on both mtbikes...it is hard and took a few rides to break it in! Not sure if I would like it on the roadie...I have a Terry Zero on the roadie and love it!!!

I also use a Butterfly on my commuter which I love as well....the Butterfly used to be on a mtbike but I could not get my tush off the back of the seat (Butterfly is much wider than the Damselfly) which is why I switched...I now can scoootch way back and tackle those steep declines on the mtb.

***can you tell I am a Terry-saddle-lover???

All tushies are different which makes the shopping hard...I just stuck with a brand I liked and have had good luck! hehe...and they have PINK!


ooops...Love the new addition...and the bike family!!! Looks like you all have a blast!

oooooooooo- what a beauty (your new bike)!!!! She's sooooo pretty!
I'm so glad you posted pictures of her- she's really nice!!!!
It was great to see all the other pics, too!

You're like us- more bikes than people in our house. Only 2 people and six bikes (mtn, road and tri each). We bike people are a mess. :D

Congrats on your latest addition!

Jiffer your new bike looks like a gem. Is your mountain bike and tandem really the same color as shown in the pics? The bikes look pretty content in their clean storage area too.

GREAT!!! I love all the pictures. So many lovely bikes. And I love your new one. I wasn't sure how the pink would look, but it's very classy!

Sweeeeeeet!

Nice bike!


But, what really got my attention is your "bike closet". Wow, we need a couple of those! Did you build it yourself or is something you bought ready-made?

Love the grey and pink. Looks great:D Lot of nice bikes in your stable:D

Woo hoo! Have fun!

I hope my garage is that full in a few years. :cool:

Very cool. Thanks for sharing the pics.

I also like the bike closet.. though there's no room in my place but what a cool idea.

Hmm.. under 17 lbs.. man that sounds cool.. and fast! How's she climb?

Sweeeeeeeeeet . . . Congrats on your new bike! It's really nice! And I just love a home with so many bikes . . . reminds me of my own garage full of BIKES! :D

great pix! glad you included yourself too. Now we have a face to go with the name.

Happy new bike to you. It's rather nice looking.
