Flat bar or drops?

Yep! The 2009 Grey and black. I was thinking it needed some bling. Maybe I should post a new thread..."Decorate my bike"! I took it on our first real ride. Had some cable tension issues that put a damper on it but that's all fixed now. Can't wait for the next one. Unfortunately sanding an polyurethaning my sunroom floor is first on the docket for me.

So I took my shiny new bike on its first outing since getting adjusted. It rides beautifully!!! I'm very comfortable on it even in the drops. I did however make a discovery. I'm riding along climbing hills, going really fast on the flats and it's so easy I feel like a cycling goddess!!! I'm not even feeling the headwind (20mph-storm rolling in) because I'm on my super fast new bike. I even look really cute in my new Sheila Moon Bippie Tank and Shebeast SSS shorts. Until I looked down and realized I'm riding in my stupid GRANNY GEAR!!!!!! Man what a let down. Back to reality. I'm really a middle-aged human who could stand to lose about 10 pounds just like most everybody else. Oh well, it was sweet while it lasted

Where are the pictures of you on this awesome bike??
I gotta see some!

That was a funny story. I sometimes do that; I'll be flying along feeling like I'm in the TDF and then some old guy whizzes by me on a 70 lb mountain bike like I'm standing still and I realize I'm not quite as studly as I might have thought.

I'm glad I'm not the only one.!!!!!!! Well, at least I looked the part.Pictures to come later.
