    This is from my first real event this past Saturday (obviously before the ride). At one point, my bf and I got lost (bad cue sheet directions). I stopped and had my left foot unclipped and on the ground, my right foot still clipped in. I turned my body around to the left, to ask bf - which way? and I started to lean to the right. Of course, still being new to clipless, I just panicked and fell completely over to the right.
    Long story short, the "topple" left an 8 inch scratch on my left forearm - still can't figure out how.
    Bf said if I wanted, we could come up with a better story about how it happened (as opposed to, "I just...fell over"). Ah...battle scars.
    I haven't been successful at submitting pics thus far. Let's see if this works.

    I think I may have posted these before in another thread, but they're the best I have and I loved that ride:

    ok, I have to play... I wish I had more of me on my mtn bike too. I'll have to look around.
    Of course the first one is my Ironman bike photo, the second is on my old bike at a sprint. I hope this works!

    Finishing Diabetes Tour de Cure

    Here's me finishing the American Diabetes Association Tour de Cure 26 miler this last June in Stillwater, NY, my first group ride and currently the longest ride I've done. I even raised $2100! Would you believe it was about 55 degrees at ride time, windy and cloudy?

    I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

    This was taken by Dachsund here on a TE ride. Dachsund, I hope you don't mind my using it here. Pictured left to right: Leebob, Dita (me), Jobob, Shannon, Spazzdog.

    Also I was riding the commuter that day. If you look real close you can see the sign on it "My other bike's a Mondonico Futura Legero"

    On the road bike, look closely for the tiny sign "My other bike's a GT Outpost Trail". I don't have a picture of the Motobecane which would have a sign "ask me about the other bikes", it's still being worked on.

    This is one of my all time favorites, taken last year by Veronica's coach. That's SadieKate in the foreground and me in the back, riding up a road in California called Iron Mountain Road (but is also known as Mormon Emigrant Trail). I have different wheels now but the bike (Pipit) is still the same.



    And here is Ouzel. Not a very flattering picture of me, but it's a good picture of her!

    Affirmative. It gave the Coach something to take pictures of since he was designated SAG that day!

    I thought of that ride the other day as I was flying down Big Mtn here in SLC. They are similar rides. I sure miss it.

    you're all sick of me

    ...but my pics are going in an appropriate place- next to all these other pretty wimmens. =) Looking good, ladies! I almost feel bad for the menfolk, knowing there are such nice looking velogirls out there, and that not everyman can have one.

    That's so cool that you can get together for rides with other folks on the forum! Nice to see you all together, too.

    True there are a flock of us here, or I should say a peloton. What's really great is they are all such really cool great gals.

    I forget where you are, the Seattle gals are starting to do get togethers, Oregon has done a ride or a few .... or move here
