Hello--from Michigan

[Trek-chick]

I've been lurking around here for a while and, figured I should introduce myself. I am actually just getting into road biking after many years of doing the mountain bike thing. I had an old Trek road bike from the mid-eighties and, basically that is the extent of my road cycling.

I am currently shopping for a new road bike. I looked on ebay and Craigslist for a while but, could not find what I wanted so, I decided to go to the LBS and get fitted, do some test rides and go with a new bike. Been shopping foe 3 weeks now and will go out again this weekend to do some test riding. I hope to find "my" perfect bicycle very soon.


I am currently looking at the Womens models because I have long legs and short torso so, finding a good fit hasn't been easy for me. (I,m 5'8"--31.5" inseam.)

I signed up for a century ride at the end of Sept. in Michigan so, I will ride as much as I can all season long. I can not wait.

...Is winter ever going to end????????
