Did my first race last weekend, had a blast. Wasn't last and finished! Seriously great time on a bike, racing again in a couple weeks in Indy - can't wait!

Did my first race last weekend, had a blast. Wasn't last and finished! Seriously great time on a bike, racing again in a couple weeks in Indy - can't wait!
I've been away for awhile as I'm taking some classes until April, but Mr. gave me some Lady Assos short for Christmas and I love them. A shop he knows has sales from time to time, and has them on...
I wouldn't worry about it. I've fallen over once on the bike, extreme slow speed, my body took the blow, I can't remember if I even unclipped. I've also had the bike fall over on several...
SR500's DH here. You should go for more of an upgrade. While the 2.1 is nice, it's fairly close to what you have. The new Madones are running several hundred off list price (although delivery is...
Wow, sounds fun. We were there, but riding wasn't in the cards this year. We didn't see the Bama jerseys, maybe you saw the kids rolling down the big hill by the the ice creme side of the vendor...
Congrats on a new bike, sounds great. Just an an FYI, our dealer sells Waterford, they are fully custom and simply beautiful, not cheap, but they can be almost as light as carbon and have an...
Mr. here:
Here is the bike with some new Conti 4000s rubber. Unrelated, but I broke a spoke yesterday so the wheels is going to the shop today. I get the wrap from BikeTiresDirect.com, but it...
Yes, he has hit a bit of a bump with the Share the Road signs. Right now the local "club" is pushing the city for offical bike routes, so "they" decided to hold off on the signs for now.

Very Nice! DH says great upgrade from Race, although he likes his RaceXLites.
Quality programs that will give you excellent results. We bought ours from TE, the Cyclo-Core website is confusing, and if you sign up on the email list you'll get tons of offers. That said, the...
I didn't mean to imply it wasn't terrible. My DH ran a light as a teenager and hit a car, no one was injured, but there was a lot of damage including is employers truck. He was negligent (changing...
I just read the article and some replies. My question is why sue? It appears is was an accident. Including the bike club, company the guy worked for, just makes the lawsuit look poor. I'm not...
A very difficult situation. Maybe best to see if time can't provide some more healing. Maybe see if a minister or other person might get a few of you together with her and see if any common ground...
I know they should ride it first, but it's a surprise, and riding first isn't a great option. It's for my sister in law, so she has something to ride with her 6 year old. Our local shop had a Trek...
We were in Pienza on our Trek Travel tour last year. Riding is awesome, hills tend to be longer then we have in Indiana, but doable. I had a little more trouble on some of switchback descents, but...
DH washes all the bike stuff and only uses Woolite. He washes everytime either of us ride, and hasn't had any problems. He's very picky and has some very expensive Assos bike stuff that he treats...
You might check out Pro-Lite, one of my DH's buddies sells them.

Great! They just had a big Labor Day sale and sold about 500 bikes, so makes sense they were out. We are in Richmond, so not too close, you might want to check out:

These guys have rental bikes, I'm not sure if they have road bikes.

Thank you, best help I've had. DH got on the blog and Trek answered all the questions we had. So I'm going to get a 52 instead of the 50 we ordered. I hope it might be a little quicker delivery -...
GREAT! DH had several friends do it at all levels, and reports were excellent as well. We hope to be there to watch next year :)
Sorry, I should have added that. It’s a new ’08 Madone 5.1 WSD. Stand over is basically a non-issue since it’s a compact geometry. I’ve been on a ’07 and the 51 WSD fits perfectly, but not only...
Hi,
I'm getting ready to order a new bike, the problem is it's brand new so none available to ride. I've narrowed it down, ridden many similar bikes, and talked with almost everyone I could, the...
DH has 5 friends participating, 2 will be in the 10'ish hour range, one hopefully around 12, not as sure about the other 2. Have a great time, I know he wishes he could be there cheering them on. ...
