She's here!

Btw, in those photos, the dog (Linus) is thinking "is this one of those things that's going to make the one who has thumbs leave the house more often? Is it edible?" Or something like that.

I took a 30 minute spin on the bike. The seat seems tilted up, and it was painful, and I can't figure out how to tilt it down. My back started to hurt, I think because of the seat tilt. I am going to be good and heed my chiropracter and ride the new bike minimally before my trip to italy (which is two weeks from yesterday!) because my knee/back/foot health is so precarious at the moment, she doesn't want me to change anything on my bike (of course, I didn't change anything on my bike, I just got a new bike ). New bike will still be here when I'm not feeling so delicate. God, I'm really maturing nicely.

However, even riding for 30 minutes did give me a sense of the speed that will someday soon be mine! And I shall rule the world!!! OK, a little overboard.

I think Linus has many thoughts. And he looks like the sort of dog that would be dangerous with opposable thumbs

I know about maturing and I think it's over-rated. Anyway, that beautiful bike will be waiting for you! Are you going to bring a picture of her with you?

I'm sure it'll go smoothly once you start riding. It just takes tweaking little things and it'll happen before you know it.

Oh that is a beautiful bike. I could not believe the change in colors from one pic to the next. I must look gorgeous in the sun.

I wish you enjoyable and safe miles with it.

Oooooo...Pretty eye candy! Serottas are such beautiful bikes.
Thanks for posting the pics.

Is that one of those color-shifting paint jobs that looks one color at one angle, but then the color shifts to something different at another angle?

Linus looks like he's saying "You got the camera out. Obviously, you want to take a picture of ME."
Enjoy the ride!!

The bike and Linus are beautiful. I thought those dog ears and eyes meant "What do you mean 'get out of the picture'? I'm ready for a walk!"

Yup, the colors change in the light, sort of purple/blue/copper.

Now I just have to get comfortable on it!

Wow - thanks for taking that picture from the top because you really get a good sense for the color changes. VERY cool.

I like the art shot of Linus in the foreground and the bike slightly blurry behind him.
