We just talked to the LBS and they said it would either be late today or sometime tomorrow before it's ready. Tomorrow bites because I have obligations all day long and can't go myself. DH would have to go and get it for me and how anti-climactic is THAT?! Him seeing my bike first and me not being able to physically go into the bike shop to get my bike? I'm so stupid sentimental! My other option is waiting for Monday and ... well, we all know how not happy that would make me! Yet, I don't know if I even have time to ride it until then.![]()
Anywho, I'll be happy to provide many "pictures, pictures, pictures!" for proof and verification when I not only HAVE the bike, but when I get it all pinked out.I'm waiting for my pink saddle bag, bottle cages and bottles to arrive. Not to mention my pink jerseys.

Yes, we need proof. Actually, I think we are just a bunch of picture nuts.![]()
Welcome to the Cannondale fold, I no longer feel solo amongst the Bianchi, Rivendell, Trek and Specialized riders here.

Yah, Aggie, what's that all about?! Where's all the Cannondale riders? Is it just not a common women's bike choice? I almost got a Specialized Ruby, but then my hubs found out what an awesome deal he could get on a CAAD 9 frame, which is what he used to ride. He couldn't pass it up. Plus, I'm very tall ... 5'9", so it's not like I feel the need for a "women specific bike". Though Cannondale does make women specific bikes.
Anyways, it's nice to meet another Cannondale-er!![]()
OK, calm down now.

Well little short me (5'2") had to have WSD. I don't know about where you ride, but most of the shops here (Austin, TX) are Trek or Specialized shops. Those are great brands, but my DH had a Cannondale for 2 years and I wanted one! Maybe it is because they have a reputation of being more of a race-oriented frame maker?
