Once you get your new bike fit, you'll be all ready to start training in February for the Death Ride...(I coach a Team in Training group for the Death Ride, and we ride in Sonoma. Napa and Marin counties - perfect for you! We start training in the beginning of February and the ride is second week of July. Just think about it.....)

Already planning on it! With TIT.... my friend Sarah Betman did it last year, and we are planning on doing it this year
Actually it is the main reason I'm getting a new ride in the first place! (But the other reason is that I am a gear snob and I love sexy bicycles) I'm excited!

So your her friend who's doing it? Excellent! Looking forward to meeting you! I'm her coach.

small world
she says "hi"... I'm currently watching her spin in circles while she tries to pack for Nepal.
I can't wait to start training! See you (on my new bike?!) in February!

Nepal. I am so jealous it's hard to focus...
We'll get a ride in before February. When the grand Sherpa returns we will get together. I've been spending too much time riding motorcycles and not enough riding bikes right about now, but it's all good.

Bay Area bike fit
I was very happy with the recent bike fit I had with Lorri Lee Lown (velogirl, here on the TE forum). http://coaching.velogirls.com

Grand Sherpa has asked me to get her out once she gets home, so we'll plan a ride. I'm not really sure if I'll want to be friends with her once she's back from my dream vacation!

+2 for Chris at Robinson Wheel Works. (and the coffee!)
He got all scientific and precise just figuring how to adjust a borrowed bike to fit me for a little afternoon ride! Great guy, very sweet, and a real bike guru."If Americans want to live the American Dream, they should go to Denmark." - Richard Wilkinson
