I can relate to this .... this is my first....and not knowing how far I'd go with cycling...was on a budget to give it a try.....so it was the highest quality I could get for my buck....

BUT...now that I know I'm loving cycling....when I get financially able to buy my next bike.....ya...your right....it's not going to be a 'girls' bike...... when I go into the LBS...I drool over the dark sleek colors...and the hot curves...of the BIG TIME bikes!!!
