    Sara,

    I am right there with you! In fact, I think we started about the same time. I am going to break 1,000 miles on my new bike today and feel like a totally different person. I know that I ask questions that experienced riders would be tempted to laugh at (and I'm grateful they don't, at least to my face) but I also know that I am much more into this and experienced than the average person who gets on a bike every once and a while. As Lisa said, (her perspective on cycling rocks!) it is definitely all relative.

    And YES, I love what has happened to my legs, and I think we need to start another thread with pictures of our strong biker thighs. This time I'd actually put mine in there. Without shame. That's personal growth, baby!

    Lisa, I thought you had posted a picture of your thighs!

    Probably not in *this* lifetime.

    Too funny- I hadn't thought of that!
