What's in your stable? hehe old Mongoose Threshold, soon to be renamed "Lactate Threshold Goose" (my grocery store bike)

Fastest speed on a road bike? about 37 - have some big hills out in the country and no traffic - didnt know that was fast - thought my front wheel was going to come off - can't wait til I get a decent bike! (Have a computer but don't remember if it was 37 or 39 mph)

Another picture of yourself or your ride? dont have that any right now

What is the biggest lie you've ever told: "That's fine with me"

Most memorable moment on my bike: In second grade when I realized the mechanical workings of a bicycle - how the chaindrive worked, etc. Light bulb moment - have loved bikes since

Most fun ever had on a bike? Just finished a 36-mile event (my first) on my Goose - was a tough ride with lots of hills and a strong headwind the last twelve miles - but felt it "made" me as a cyclist.
