Getting to Know You!

[Celeste]

Hi Ladies,
Thanks for the warm welcome!

My DH and I were in Seattle summer before last to see a concert. We were doing some site seeinig and went to the area where the Seattle Space Needle and the museums are.

This thing outside was a bike on a rail going around! No tires, just a rim! I walked up there by the stiar case you see in the back. About one or so stories off the ground. Actually, below me was a shallow pond and a net. But I was feebly strapped in at the waist. I wanted to slow down and wave at DH, but I could not. The guy just kept saying "Keep Pedaling!" So I did! LOL

What you don't see is a bar coming off the base of the bike thingy, going straight down and a large weight at the bottom to help keep you balanced. I wanted DH to get a complete picture. But I will settle for what we got. I was scared, but did it anyway. Would have been dissapointed with myself if I did not do it at least once.

Glad you enjoyed the pic!

Mimitabby: I see you are from Seattle. Do you know this place? I really fell in love with Seattle. I really enjoyed our visit. Very eclectic; really nice people too!
BTW, I have a Bianchi bike...can I get my pic on the TE Bianchi-girl page too? I do get lots of comments on it due to the color, I think.
