Well, me? I LOVE pink. A lot, with a vengeance; this is no secret. My boyfriend, thank goodness, not only accepts this, he downright encourages it.

So he surprised me on Christmas with news of my upgraded and custom-painted bike frame, that I didn't get to see until recently. I finally rode it Sunday for the first time. WOW!


(Bottlecages from liza still in effect!)

Details on the pretty parts: magenta with a heavy multi-colored glitter, then clear coated. My name and the logo are in a shimmery white. The cranks and stem are painted to match. The "lugs" are real silver leaf.

Underneath all that is a 2010 Ruby, which is stiff as heck and descends like a beautiful dream: it carves the road like a snowboarder on a fresh patch of powder. So. Flipping. Cool.

And since I name all my bikes after cheese, this one is henceforth known as Windsor.

Here's to the next 10,000 miles!!
