Hi all,

Just had to post...after lots and lots of test rides, I brought home my new Trek 5000 WSD. Coming off a hybrid, it sails along like a rocket! And here's the kicker...I dove in headfirst and went clipless, and had no trouble at all on my first ride around the neighborhood...no fright, no falls! I'm a believer!

When I get a pic, I will post it. (By the way, her name is Myrtle.)

Love these boards. I would have been totally overwhelmed going into the LBS without the knowledge I've gained here from all of you. It's nice to have so many mentors at one's fingertips!
