Another picture of yourself or your ride? Behold! Me, my ride, my trusty bike rack shown below.


What is the biggest lie you've ever told: taking the 5th on this one.

Most memorable moment on my bike: 10 years old on a Raleigh with a banana seat and coaster breaks: Bombing down the steepest hill in my neighborhood without breaking, totally facing the older, cool kids on their BMX bikes (they all either chickened out, or hit the breaks), and learning the valuable lesson that glory comes to those who don't let anyone tell them they can't do something, and that a skinned knee is not worth crying about.

Most fun ever had on a bike? This summer, my first summer of road biking/tri training. Realizing I'm still the same 10 year old with no fear (but a much better bike), and I CAN hang with the cool kids.

I like to coordinate with my bike! Plus, I just think red goes faster.
