I also find that the guys seem to be more friendly than the girls. There are exceptions, of course. The weekend I met a very nice young woman on a fantastic PINK bike named "Princes". The bike appeared to be totally high end custom, like a TT bike with TT wheels, etc. I think maybe it was a custom Aegis. I asked her if she was familar with any of the bike internet sites. She only knew about Terry. I told her about TE. Hope she joins!! I woulkd have talked to her longer, but my hubby was riding ahead of me and he didn't know I stopped to talk!
