Thanks for all of the advice. With the help of my dh I put my measurements into the fit calculator. Surprisingly I was a bit shorter than I thought. I must be shrinking! <grin> My bike is a 54, which is right with the French Fit.
What I really would like to know is if I would be more comfortable on a WSD. When I went to the store the salesman said I was too tall for a WSD. Of course they didn't have any in my size...
My problem is that I am leaning way to far forward and have to stretch my neck up to see what is in front of me. Today one of my friends sent me several pictures of her racing in the Hotter than Hell last year and she has her road bike set up so she is in an upright position. Her handlebars are higher than her seat and she rides a Trek Pilot WSD. Ironically we are the same height.
In retrospect I feel like the salesman told me that I wouldn't fit on a WSD because he wanted to sell what was on the floor. <sigh> I honestly just want a bike that is comfy. I just want to ride!
I guess I need to take the bike back to see what they can do for me. I thought getting a new bike would be so much fun! It has been such a headache for me.
