Getting to Know You!

[ZenBiker]

Real name: Kathy

Where do you live? NE Utah

Explanation of your handle: getting in a groove on a bike feels like moving meditation

Explanation of your avatar: was riding around town taking pics of "landmarks" for a colleague's going away party, and snapped one of the shadow of my front wheel.... thought it was kinda artsy...

Age (general or specific) 52

Occupation: Natural Resource Management

Favorite bike: my Dolce Comp - but I'm starting to covet a Ruby

What's in your stable? Specialized Dolce Comp, Diamondback Transporter (commuter bike)

Fastest speed on a road bike? where? when? got into the low 30s when I was young. Nowadays I top out at 25.

Another picture of yourself or your ride? none yet

Most memorable moment on my bike: first week of using clipless pedals, was concentrating on clipping in as I rolled out my driveway, looked up to see a car coming. Executed a hard right and slo mo tip over, like the guy on a trike on Laugh In (only forum members my age will know who that was!). The driver of the car thought it was hilarious!

Most fun I've ever had on my bike: hmmm - maybe the event ride I did in Colorado last fall, because it was the first time I rode with a bunch of other people and the ride was followed by wine tasting.
