What's in your stable? my roadie la Caliente - and just got a new '08 scattante x560 'cross bike a week ago i haven't even ridden yet bc i don't have mtb pedals (they're on the way!)

Fastest speed on a road bike? where? when? still working on getting a computer...

Another picture of yourself or your ride? just got into cycling this summer and haven't gotten any yet (its a tragedy, i know)

What is the biggest lie you've ever told: i usually only lie to cover up surprise gifts i get for my loved ones

Most memorable moment on my bike: the only time i ever tried mountain biking a couple years ago i was charging down a steep incline that led right to a wooden bridge over a creek when i couldn't help but glance at the water and (of course) completely missed the bridge. the rest of the ride the whole crew was referring to me as "the Fearless".

Most fun ever had on a bike? i recently did my first race, the Tour de Donut, around here. its a 31.4mi race that attracts people of all ability levels and has two rest stations where they have refreshments, including donuts. the fun part is that for every donut you eat they take 5 minutes off of your final time. i did it with two of my classmates and my boyfriend and had an absolute blast!
