Fastest speed on a road bike? where? when? Haven't ridden a road bike much, but I hit 21 mph in an intersection in Houston trying to get out of the way of a truck... Can we say "adrenaline-fueled sprint"? About three weeks ago.

Another picture of yourself or your ride? Another? I been riding this thing for 15 years and I don't even got one!

What is the biggest lie you've ever told: Mmmm.... Nope. Don't think I'll share that, either :P

Most memorable moment on my bike: Do childhood mishaps count? I once rode down a hill on a borrowed bike without working brakes (unbeknownst to me until I tried to use them!) and hit an apartment building. I clearly remember that long moment of *knowing* I was going to crash and deciding whether to hit the wall or the car... Etched forever in memory! To this day I'm not entirely sure how I survived my childhood

Most fun ever had on a bike? Riding along the top of Skyline Drive in Canon City, Colorado. After a helluva climb up, the road follows the ridge - up and down and up and down - like a roller coaster It was like flying - no ground on either side, just sky and wind. Talk about a rush!
