Boy, I second that.
The amount of patience and camaraderie that I have found here is astonishing.
Not to mention all the experience and wisdom!
I ride with some folks who have been everywhere and done everything (and own lots of expensive bikes) but try to get them to answer an email!!!
THANK YOU

This list ROCKS and a HUGE Thanks to Cari!

I want all of you to know how very important this list is to me. The advise and friendship is truly amazing. Last night Cari (who really does not know me) spent literally hours expaining clipless pedals to me. WOW. Seriously wow, as in she talked with me until 3:30am! I now feel confident to go to the LDBS (long distance bike store) and talk pedals with Jack. He is waiting for me, my shoes (he is going to put them together Cari), and my bike. Watch out world, in a few hours I will be clipless. Help us all.

Awesome!
Hope you enjoy being *professional* with your clipless pedals and shoes!

I have been so impressed with how everyone takes time to answer questions, even those that they have most likely answered many, many times before.
Without being too sappy, I love it here. I wish I could meet all of you!Jennifer

I have not left yet, we are loading up the bikes. My oldest twin is getting a new bike today as well as me going clipless. I expect a lot of falling down. Now do I have a stocked first aid kit.... Originally Posted by KSH

You're very welcome :)
Awww, you're welcome Jennifer! I'm just glad that you feel confident and empowered!
And I'm only passing it on... plenty of people here have helped me loads, and they still do! I don't know what I would have done if I hadn't found the TE board, and I am infinitely grateful to all of the women here who have taken the time to answer my questions.
Someday soon, you too will be helping wide-eyed newbies.
Cari
