What's in your stable? In our garage: 2 road bikes, 4 older hybrid/mountain bikes for riding on dirt roads, one toddler bike w trainign wheels, 2 trikes, and a joggeroo!
Fastest speed on a road bike? where? when? I am just getting started on the road, so (i) i'm not sure, and (ii) i suspect, not all that fast.
Another picture of yourself or your ride? not yet
What is the biggest lie you've ever told: about biking? none so far!
Most memorable moment on my bike: having lost 55-60 pounds over the last 2 years, i decided to push my weekend biking a bit last month - - i set off on a short (maybe 18 miles) but very hilly ride to a friend's house on a mountain bike in the HEAT. Altho i had to walk a small portion of the big hill, I made it, and felt like superman. I want MORE of what that felt like. So I got a road bike, have been riding it ever since, and am thrilled to have found this spot.
Most fun ever had on a bike? someone wrote about finding stunning houses on a bike ride; i am guilty of that pleasure too. Mostly, though, the fun part is the freedom and the adventure and the power....
