No...my new bike doesn't get to come home until tomorrow - but I SAW it today! Sadly I didn't know I would get to meet him today so I wore a longish dress to work - rather hard to take it for a spin in THAT

I already know my LHT is male, and such a beautiful color! So compact and small that I had an immediate urge to toss my leg over the top tube and go for a nice long ride...even if it wasn't, quite, built yet Almost, 99% done, but not quite. I AM glad that I went with the 46cm rather than the 42, that would have been too small for me.

He looks much smaller than Stella, though I suspect that is the smaller wheels more than anything. I have GOT to get that bar-end shifting down, and fast. I have given myself permission to replace the road bars with mountain bars/trigger shifters if the bar-end thing proves too big of an issue - not that I think I will do it but it gives me an "out" so I can relax and play with them

I almost had them replace the bar tape, but as they had a very narrow range of colors I decided to take my time deciding how to personalize my lovely small touring bike!

Tomorrow I will get pictures at the store - I've no one at home to take them... I might even be in the picture
