    I bet you feel like you are flying now! Congrats! I loved the part where your husband didn't call in time. How much time did you give him? "Honey, I waited and waited an ENTIRE minute!" Just a side note: don't you just love those Skechers shoes? I have them in a zillion colors!

    Thanks, all.

    Uforgot, I gave him all the way until I got back to the bike shop. If he can't sit at his desk waiting for me to call all day, it's his fault! lol. I think those Skechers are just perfect for riding my bike, because I don't like walking in them. The heel is too narrow! But I do like the elastic that holds them on. They're not too bulky for the cages, either.

    Ow my booty is hurting. I've not been riding my mtn bike much this season. It still has that annoying click in the BB that just drove me nuts, and niggled into my brain every time I thought about riding. So, no butt callouses, yet. But I think I've got my new bike saddle in the right position. And I look so good on it.

    You know, I really hate the expression on my face in that picture, so just so you can picture me "right" here's a better one. lol. (But I wear contacts, now.) That's my grandson when he was 4 months old. He will be 2 on Wednesday.

    Both bike and rider are radiant!

    I love that frosted blue color.

    Good for you! Enjoy that ride! I was in LBS to buy some a stem spacer for my 7.2FX (aka Ruby), and found myself looking longingly at a 1500 and an Allez...I had to talk myself out of drooling! I have a feeling a road bike will be in my Summer future too!

    p.s. nice shade of blue - and your grandbaby is a cutie too!
    It's all about the journey (my reason for riding slower)
