Real name: Kristen

Where do you live? Portland, OR

Explanation of your handle: First name, last initial

Explanation of your avatar: my rally car at an event I was having quite a lot of fun... the full picture is approaching a sweeper left, and I was definitely going too fast! Made it through, though, with lots of giggling.

Age (general or specific) 35

Occupation: Senior Payroll Specialist

Favorite bike: my Schwinn commuter and my Trek rec road bike

What's in your stable? 2006 Schwinn Supersport GS (flat bar road bike-- super commuter!) and 2008 Trek WSD 2.3 (my first "real" road bike-- super flyer!)

Fastest speed on a road bike? where? when? 41mph, downhill near the end of the Bridge Pedal last year. Whoa-fast!

Another picture of yourself or your ride? I think there may be one or two posted on the Fat Cyclist.com flickr group... I know there's some from the Bridge Pedal but I don't have them hosted anywhere.

Most memorable moment on my bike: Riding with my BF on the Vineride in 2007-- he did the 100, I did the 67-mile route; after the two routes diverged, I forged on alone to the next rest stop to wait for him. That 15-mile stretch of road was quite awesome! And then the rest of the ride after he got done with the extra 30-mile loop, that was great. He cheered me up the last three hills. What a great guy!

Most fun I've ever had on my bike: any day I get to ride!
