Real name: Solveig
Where do you live? Postville, IA - far northeast corner, where it's not flat

Explanation of your handle: There really aren't nicknames that flow readily from my name...and the only other codelike words I could come up with would grant everyone access to all my credit card accounts...so had to go with just the first name.

Explanation of your avatar: maybe coming this winter! who knows!

Age (general or specific) 27, almost 28

Occupation: Vegetable Farmer

Favorite bike: my Kestrel Talon

What's in your stable? Kestrel Talon, recently-resurrected GT Outpost Trail for gravel riding and around the farm

Fastest speed on a road bike? where? when? about 35 mph, down a big hill around Elgin, IA this past July

Another picture of yourself or your ride? Again, maybe this winter I'll figure out how to upload photos.

What is the biggest lie you've ever told: I don't want dessert tonight...

Most memorable moment on my bike: Oooh...Finishing my last of a series of 3 weekly time trials. I felt great, was well rested and fueled, and actually PASSED someone in the final 1/2 mile before the finish. Totally all-out effort, with that intoxicating feeling of overtaking another rider. Won a pair of socks for that effort.

Most fun ever had on a bike? Any one of the long rides my partner and I take on summer/fall weekends. Clear sky, sunshine, my honey, and the Iowa hills.
