HA! HA!
Funny you should ask... I am about to leave to pick her up from the LBS.
The bike arrived this past week, but I wasn't able to get the box until today.
So, at Noon I rushed right up to the LBS to get it fit. And... it FIT!!!!
I don't have to sell her... she is mine... ALL MINE!!!
I also love the fact that I got my bike at Christmas time!
My Dad bought my pedals. My Mom bought my Terry saddle.
My boyfriend... bought:
* A wireless bike computer
* A tool bag with all the goodies needed to change a flat
* New bar tape (the red was horrible looking)
* A water bottle cage
* A new seat post
* The fitting!
As you can see, my dear sweet boyfriend was very generous. I have all I could of dreamed of Christmas!
I will post pictures as soon as we pull them off the camera. I got some pictures of when the bike was being put together, and when I was getting fit.
I am also going to take one when I go up there in a few mintues. I want one of me BEAMING beside her, in all her FAST glory!
After the fitting was done, I took it for a short spin around the parking lot. Yea... uuummm... being in aero position was *scary*. I will need to get use to that! Otherwise, the bike felt... FAST!!!
I am taking her out on Sunday for her first ride. It will be on a bike path, so it will be a good way to get eased into aero position riding.
Thanks for asking TriGirl... I can't WAIT to show her off. What a beautiful tri bike I own *pinches herself to see if she's dreaming*.

You will just know that you are going to finish and that was what you set out to do."
