    Changing My Screen Name

    So, I am starting to think that my screen name needs to be changed. When I created it a few years ago, I really was a "Newbie." And even though I still don't know a lot about biking, I'm not sure that I consider myself a newbie any more.

    I have two questions:

    1. Is there a way to change my screen name without creating a brand new account and losing all of my statistics, like how many posts I have?

    2. And this one is more fun - do you have any suggestions for a new screen name. I was thinking of Over50andFit, but then what happens when I turn 60 - will I have to change it again?

    Any answers to either question?

    1) I guess the CP does not allow it - maybe pm administrator.

    2) It's probably too long, but how about "over the hump and loving it"?
    It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.

    On another forum, I had the name of my weight loss journal be fit by 50, but then when I achieved my goals, and was over 50 I needed a new name so I chose FitForever. I don't mind if you use it, since I think that is what you are trying to convey by referencing your age in your screename. BTW, my screen name, with the word girl in it, does not reveal my age at all, quite the opposite, here I think I am trying to convey how young I feel by using the word girl.

    I am curious why you feel your age needs to be so linked to your screen name.

    Yes.

    How about Zsa Zsa McGee for a screen name?

    Zen, you always crack me up!!

    Have you always had this great sense of humor, or is this something that you have acquired with age?
