I'm sorry MP, that bike is just ugly. Send it to me, I'll take care of it for you.***did she fall for it?**
Hissy fit? Did someone get cranky?

Hoo, meee, cranky??
I was so freakin' whupped on the Morgan Territory climb that at the rest stop at the top of the climb I parked my bike and just sat for a bit. Then I started to get re-organized, but by then all I wanted was to just stop and be done with it; I was actually crying a bit at the thought of getting back on my bike(!!).
My poor coach (who is a stickler for taking very brief stops) then asked me if I was ready to go. At about that point I was ready to just pick up my goddamn bike and throw it over the fence. Instead, I threw the rest of the sandwich I was trying to force down.
Heh, I'm nothing if not a prima donna.
I then got back on said goddamn bike and continued on the ride. Fortunately for me, and for all concerned, it was practically all downhill from there, so I was feeling much better (physically and oh-so-emotionally) by the end of the ride.

That bike is amazing! A whole lotta love!
So happy for you!
Normally orange isn't my favorite color, but this is beautiful! Congratulations on your new bike and may you have many good miles together![]()
That's a beautiful bike, MP! Just lovely. The way you are lifting it down off that rack makes it look like it weighs nothing!
Keep calm and carry on...
Orange is my favorite color. That bar tape is cool! The bike itself is just stunning! Happy riding!
