    Welcome aboard!

    The important thing is that your bike fits you, regardless of its gender. Have fun with "him"! When is the Tour de Pink scheduled? On these forums, you can find all sorts of info about training and preparing for a long ride, so look around.

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

    welcome to TE or as we call it "heaven for women cyclists". Somewhere around here there's a lengthy thread on "what gender is your bike?".

    Manbike (love the term!) or girlbike it's yourbike! .

    That makes even the roughest, toughest, butchiest, (but sensitive of course) manly bike .... a girlbike.
