I'm thrilled for you! You must be so excited, please post a picture when you get it. Like your new blog too.

and here she is! Sorry for the poor picture, it was grey and dingy all day today so the pic's taken in the garage.

The LBS owner delivered it this morning and did the final adjustments. I had a quick spin down the road and like it very much so far, will get a proper ride tomorrow morning. After checking it over a bit more I might need to ask him if he can adjust the left thumb shifter, it seems to have a lot of travel in it before it actually changes the gear. All the others seem fine though. The frame size is lovely too, 15.5inches. It looks so tiny next to my Marin comfort bike, but in a small and powerful way.

I'm really looking forward to taking it off-road tomorrow and seeing how those lower gears tackle the hills!

And here's a better picture, taken after Sunday's ride. Excuse the upside down seat pack (I needed the reflector to still be visible).

Nice pictures, that bike looks ready to fly down the road just sitting still.

Wow, you still have green grass, we are in winterwonderland mode in Michigan.
