Hi everyone!

I got my bike yesterday!! Thanks so much to everyone for your tips and info; it was all very helpful.

I got a Trek 2.3T WSD (T for triple, WSD for women's specific design)... I tried a bunch of other bikes, at a couple of different places.

The first place had me try a 1.2 WSD on a trainer but it was obvious that it was the wrong size; I felt like I was riding a kiddie bike. So then I got on a couple of men's bikes, and they didn't feel right, either.

So we went to a couple of other places, couldn't find anything I liked.

The last place we went to had some very knowledgeable and helpful sales people; I rode a couple of men's bikes but Matt (the guy sales person) thought that even though the frame was the right size, in theory, I was really stretched out trying to reach the hoods. So he dug up the one I ended up buying, and it was PERFECT. Ashley (the gal sales person) set it up for me on the trainer and checked over all the fit points. You coulda run a plumb line from my kneecap to the correct spot on the pedal and it would have been perfect.

Seat height: perfect. Reach: perfect. Ride: perfect. Comfortable, zippy, I love it.

When I figure out how to do pics, I'll post!

Thanks again!
