Don't get me wrong I love my 650 bike it's just I'm such a "girl" I love to have a lot of choices whether it's for shoes, clothes, OR WHEELS! When it's time to buy new tires for the road bikes Joe and Jackie oogle and oooohhhh over the many selections and I have maybe one or two.

I have averaged 17 mph (three years ago when I was in shape) riding with my hubby and our psycho bike friends. I remember keeping up with dh and looking at my speed and was surprised to see we were cruising on a flat stretch doing 24 mph and I was right on his tail. I love the quick acceleration that the 650s offer and I know I will give up some things in place of other things offered by the 700 wheels. I know the hills will be a tad bit harder having to turn over a larger wheel but hey my legs are strong (or will be again).

mimi . . . that's right your booth was close to the Rodriguez booth. You caught me in the act of major bike lust!
