Oh Wahine... you didn'tI feel somehow partially responsible as I advised her to contact you on her intro thread. I guess I should have warned her that you are Yoda... goddess of TE and a 2007 IM winner. You kick azz and rock hard!!!!
Woohoo!!!! Way to go imdeanna.Do plenty of stretches and go sit in a hot bath tub before bed. You may only feel tired now but you are bound to be sore tomorrow. The hills and wind are nasty in The Gorge. Very proud of you and look forward to meeting you soon. Good luck and congrats on the new bike and the b!tchin' ride today.

No need to feel responsible. I had actually PM'd her (before you made the suggestion) to tell her about the beginnerish rides we'd been doing on the weekend. She didn't take me up on it. Then she got invited out for a ride with someone else... It turns out she was getting invited out for the same ride by a friend of mine so she ended up in my clutches anyway bwahaaaaaaaahaha!!

in ONE word??? "OUCH"!!!! :)
J/K!
(seriously though!)
It was an AWESOME ride...and a HUGE milestone for me!! I was grinning the rest of the night proud of myself for finishing!!!
and how I'm feeling this morning? haha....well...I'm a bit nervous to walk down ANY stairs to quickly.....and won't even mention the 'neither' region!! but beyond that...I'm feeling great!
I have to say that EVERYONE on the ride made me feel so welcome, and really showed concern and gave lots of great advice to keep me going.
Even poor Pam...who was about to give me advice on what gear I was in when her front wheel went off the road into soft gravel...taking her and her new bike down for their first scratch
(Hope her finger is doing better....she kinda got hamburger finger from it)
and Yes...I would love to go ride with Wahine again!!!
and I don't know if Carly post here or not...but I know she reads...so Thank you Carly for inviting me out!!!

Imdeana - Wonderful job!
I'm glad that you enjoyed the ride and survived what Wahine(shakes finger) put you through.
Hey, Wahine, maybe you should take a look at her fit to make-up for torturing her? Sounds like she might need an adjustment on her saddle or something.
She made a few adjustments to mine on Saturday and I felt an immediate improvement afterwards. Thanks again, Wahine.

She offered her services! and I would LOVE to take her up on a fitting!
(name the wine and the time girl!!!)
I had a killer twing between my shoulders 2" below my neck, I think my handle bars need to be raised??
She did raise my seat for me on the ride
