Hey, I've been snooping (and enjoying, and learning from) these forums for awhile now, as I've lately gotten back into biking. Been communiting 2-3 days per week, lately, plus a fun weekend ride here and there. It's so nice to be back in the saddle.
Real name: Arah
Where do you live? St. Paul, MN
Explanation of your handle: I have a red Cannondale touring bike. Love it. Have for 20 some years.

Age (general or specific) 36
Occupation: Web designer
Favorite bike: Lately, my Trek 7200FX
What's in your stable? Trek 7200FX and Cannondale touring bike, circa 1985.
Fastest speed on a road bike? where? when? I've never had a speedometer, but whatever speed I got to while going down Mt. Constitution (on Orcas Island, WA) a few times over the summer of 1987.
Another picture of yourself or your ride? Erm... I very rarely hand my camera to anyone else.
What is the biggest lie you've ever told: That my brother broke that window (the one I broke) when we were kids.
Most memorable moment on my bike: Getting to the top of Constitution without getting off the bike, that same summer. In view of the 10 or so preteens I was leading on a weeklong tour. Yessssss.
Most fun ever had on a bike? Hate to admit it, but... riding last weekend on the Root River trail, in sandals. I never knew! So nice to have toe ventilation.![]()
