    Talking My new bike!

    I got my new bike yesterday-finally. It had to be shipped from Cervelo in Canada and that took two weeks. You know how slow customs can be. I was coming unglued waiting so long.

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!! I'm like a 5 year old on Christmas morning.
    It looks a little like a circus bike. 48cm on 650 wheels. The smallest frame on the smallest wheels (there was a 61cm in there when I picked it up- they looked ridiculous next to each other). Not that MY frame is small- but us short stumpy ladies have to ride the toy bikes.
    Haven't gotten to take it out for a ride on the road yet, as it's rainy (and my new baby isn't getting wet just yet ). A lot of white means I'll have to clean her after every ride, but it's a small price to pay for speed and comfort.
    I can't wait to get on her and ride like the wind. It's more bike than this middle of the packer needs, but it's the last bike I'll ever need to buy (there's no upgrading from here- except.... a titanium frame, in which case DH might just kill me... ).

    Just had to share with you tri geeks like me (and I use that word fondly) who'd appreciate her beauty-fulness.

    (The m-dot decal was added by me last night- had to let her know how special she is to me, and how much I'm expecting from her in the future).
