    Wonderful pictures of you and the bike. And I'm sure that smile is going to be on your face every time your ride. Enjoy.

    That's a beautiful bike - I love the straight handlebar (& the other option as well)!

    Enjoy!

    I happen to think you look great! Please don't be ashamed of who you are now.
    It appears to me that you are a happy & healthy woman who is also an avid cyclist!
    Always be proud of YOU !

    Peace & Love,

    Denise

    Wow, I was totally color cordinated wasn't I. LOL. I didn't even notice that, it was completely by accident.

    Thanks Denise! I will follow your advice. I love me, I really do, I just don't want quite so much of me to love. LOL I always think I look terrible in pictures. For some reason, I don't think I look quite so bad in the mirror, but when I see a picture, I get all postall on myself.
    Your right though, it seems like as women, we are always harder on ourselves.

    Thanks everyone, I love the new bike. I think she is beautiful.
    That picture is after my first ride, and I dropped the chain 3 times learning the gears, (much different than my mountain bike) and my computer wasn't working so I don't know how I did, which kind of made me mad, but nothing against the bike by any means.
    I think I got the shifting figured out now so hopefully won't be losing my chain anymore. LOL

    If it's not raining, planning to go on a long ride tomorrow morning.

    Awesome look of pride and happiness on your face

    Way to go, GF


    Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
    "I will try again tomorrow".
