Hello to all from Yasmin in Adelaide, Australia. I'm wrapped that there are so many keen female cyclists to share the joy (& pain) with.
I've been riding for about 7 years & travel about 300km/week. The love of my life is a Trek 2300 Alpha Aluminium road bike with Carbon forks & seat-post. This love is shared by a Trek 7200 Hybrid bike- she's a beauty 'cause she'll go anywhere (not as precious as the road bike. I hope she's not listening!). I've covered about 20,000km on the hybrid & 13,000 on the roadie.
Socially I ride with a team lovingly called "Lanterne Rouge". However, this is somewhat of a misnomer as we have an ex-olympic rower, runner & a couple of national title holders. There are 42 guys in the group (!) and 1 to 2 other women plus me.
I look forward to reading your stories & factual information.

Cheers to you all & keep safe out there.
Yasmin.
