Bike fitting party with Wahine and Knot

[Susan126]

Isn't it really neat how a few adjustments make a world of difference?! I was professionally fitted on my bike 5 years ago and I have everything marked. So when DH breaks down the bikes every six months for maintenance it goes back exactly as was. I can ride for hours and still feel great afterwards.

Hey all. Is this open to newcomers? I just discovered I have that morning off. I know LITTLE about my bike except that I love to ride it. I would be interested in learning a lot more! And in meeting everyone. I need to be back to the north by late afternoon, but may just be able to make it down there. Would that be okay? I don't want to crash a party!

I think all people that are coming should be prepared to make some kind of donation to the gals who are putting this on. If there is no tip jar I will bring one.

Everyone's invited, but please let Knot know you are coming!

Jesvetmed, I look forward to meeting you!

Oh, I just read through this whole thread and an unimaginably jealous! Alas, I can not make it to this wonderful party and bike fitting and meeting of bike goddesses!

If it's at all possible, please post descriptions, and photos if you can, of the yoga and stretches, too! I'd like to know which yoga poses will most contribute to a healthier and more efficient position on the bike.

I'm sending lots of butterflies to you for the day. You will all have such a great time!

Hugs,
~T~

Great idea, Mimi...I'm in to contribute $ and to the potluck too.

Not to steal anyone's thunder here, but I would also be willing to bring my work stand and truing stand if anyone needs some impromptu maintenance or wheel-truing lessons.

Also, we are bringing both kids, so I guess I'll volunteer for baby-sitting duty while y'all go and ride.

[mimitabby]

bravo Boy!

[KnottedYet]

OOOh! Wheel truing!!!!! Maintanance!!!! COOOLLLLL! (I'll be doing babysitting with you, Mr. TigerKilt. Sknot and I won't be doing the ride.)

No need for a tip jar, this is just for fun and to look at how y'all mesh with your bikes. We likely won't be changing much of anything. Don't give us tips, just bring goodies for the potluck!

And yes, JVM, open invite! If I don't PM you with my addy and directions, PM me and remind me. I am horribly disorganized and need reminding.

How old are the little ones?

DD = 3 BIG attitude disguised in a small package with a sweet smile.

I'm still not sure if I'll participate in the group ride as I'm planning on riding there. We'll see.

I think I'll make kim-bap(Korean for nori roll) or something salad roll like. Salad roll wrappers are made with tapioca starch. I'm guessing that tapioca is G.F. but not sure. There's nothing on the package that say it's made on equipment that processes wheat products but that doesn't mean anything.
