    I'm guessing it is MPH (because she's from the US). Not unheard of - I will hit 55 - 60 coming down Carson pass, depending on wind, etc.

    So do you want to be cremated or buried?

    Buried because SK and I planned out what our tombstones would say during a ride once... I suppose you could print it on an urn, though,

    I've been on the back of a tandem at 62 mph airborne across a steel-decked bridge. Next time it happens, hubby will be cremated -- on the spot.

    Hi!

    Real name: Ana

    Where do you live? GA

    Explanation of your handle: childhood nickname

    Explanation of your avatar: I love pink!

    Age (general or specific): 44

    Occupation: Project Manager, Commercial Real Estate Development

    Favorite bike: I would say my favorite is my '08 Trek Madone 5.1 WSD. I just got it. It's absolutely beautiful! My MTB is pretty sweet too

    What's in your stable? above mentioned Madone and Fuel EX8 WSD

    Fastest speed on a road bike? where? when? I live in an area with a lot of hills so I can hit a good 30 mph. I'm hoping to surpass that real soon.

    Another picture of yourself or your ride? I'll have to get to that sometime.

    What is the biggest lie you've ever told: Can't think of anything... I try not to lie

    Most memorable moment on my bike: Actually that was just this week. I went out for a 26 mile ride with my husband. I have recently lost about 35 lbs and have been riding a lot of hills and riding on my stationary bike since the weather has been so nasty. I realized that I have gotten into great shape. A ride that used to be so difficult was a lot of fun. It was a beautiful ride along the river. The weather was just stunning. It felt so good to get be able to enjoy the scenery. In the past I was just trying to survive.

    Most fun ever had on a bike? Trying out my new MTB. It was sweet!
