Happy belated birthday and wow! what a gorgeous bike! Hope you have miles and miles of fun!

Will hit #55 myself in a couple of weeks and, like many others here, I rode all over as a kid, but didn't get hooked on cycling as an adult until 1997.
I lost my brother to AIDS and found myself training to do my first AIDS fundraising ride - thinking of it as a unique way to honor him as well as challenge myself. That was thousands of miles ago - both with training rides and riding for the same reason across a number of states...have raised almost $100k and I believe that we're getting closer to having that last AIDS ride, so we can celebrate a cure and then ride for the pure enjoyment of it, right?!
