Hi guys. I've been lurking around this site for a week or two, posting some, but thought I'd officially introduce myself. My husband has been an avid cyclist for some time and sucked me into getting a tandem last Fall. We ride a Burley Rivazza. I love it and have since decided I was ready for my own single. I guess I'm spoiled rotten because I'm getting a pretty sweet bike for my very first single. My husband ordered me a Cannondale CAAD 9 frame and I'm getting all the Dura Ace components from his last bike. He has, of course, upgraded himself to an even BETTER Cannondale for even better climbing power. (Tied for 15th place out of 337 riders at the century he did on Saturday .... I have to brag on him!)
Anyways, my frame was ordered 4 weeks ago now and I'm going to completely flip out and go psychotic if it doesn't come in soon! The guy at my LBS said it shouldn't be more than a week, but maybe sooner. We're getting a sweet deal, so I'm trying to be patient and not call him every five minutes asking, "Is it in now?!" .... "How 'bout NOW?!!!" .... "NOW???"![]()
I've enjoyed reading your posts and learning more about this crazy exciting sport through other women. It seems to be a male dominated sport, so it's fun to interact with lots of other female types!
