Pic of me on one of the local trails/areas near my home.

Great pics, all!

Lisa +1,000,000 - your daughter is just beautiful!!

We went on a very short (14 mile) ride to an area of west Concord and back today. Decided to stop in the center, to get a drink. So, as we were sitting on the bench in the alley by Main St. Cafe, we noticed there is now a bike pump attached to the wall, for people to use. This is a big stopping place for cyclists who ride out here, from the city. Then, as I was drinking my raspberry lime rickey ( a drink evoking memories of my childhood), I saw someone I know from the health club I used to belong to. We caught up on stuff and then we rode the 4-5 miles home, arriving just as the first raindrops started.

This picture of me looks a little funky, like I have a nice roll of muffin top, which I don't, but I think it's just the way I am sitting.

Solobiker, great pic and I long for the time when I will, hopefully, look as confident and relaxed on the trails that you do in this picture

Crankin, it sounds like you had fun. I don't know that I will ever get rid of my "muffin top" but at least mine is a LOT smaller than to years ago!

The touring photo is from '09 in Maine, my touring bike is my old Fuji League. I'm at the end in the pink.
The mtb photo is my Klein Palomino. She is like me, old but still going strong!

**indysteel** · 12-12-2011, 02:45 PM

Awesome action shots, Anelia and Jean!

**shootingstar** · 12-12-2011, 07:26 PM

Great stuff. I'm curious about Bulgaria. Tell us more about it cycling-wise, one day.

There's not too many of them out there anymore! I've loved mine from the moment I sat on it. It's always been a really good fit, and it handles the tight, twisty, rocky trails here in NH so well.
It did have shifting issues when I first got it, but I took the big ring off, put on a bash ring and shifting issues solved.
There are problems getting parts, so if anything goes massively wrong, I'll have to look for a new bike.

I stopped at a coffee shop on the way to the farm market. They were holding a bone marrow drive. My commute/errand bike's at about 49 seconds, then you see my bag on a chair, and there's a brief shot of me at abut 1:49 seconds.

But my 15 nano seconds of fame's not important.

Be the match! You may save a life.

This thread seems to be quiet, but I wanted to share

Bella, my older than I am road bike. She's a project of mine. Being a 22 year old self-supporting poor student makes it hard to splurge on bikes, so I'm working on restoring her. My graduation gift to myself will be a new, shiny, custom bike

Cookie Monster, my commuter. This is a picture of him leaning up against a steel staircase along our 9 mile commute after hurricane Irene as I was clearing the pathway a little

Also, me! Snuggling with Bella

Utmost respect to you, restoring your bike and quite honestly, I bet you get as much fun and excitement on your bike as anybody else, if not more.

Lovely pics, especially nice seeing a pic of you.

Incidentally, my bike I inherited from my son and it's a 1998 and I would not change it for anything else.

Happy riding.

BTW Pleased you posted on this thread, otherwise I would have forgotten it.

Bella looks like a super find. I hope you have fun working on her.

Since I'm new, I'll share too. Here's my main/favourite bike:
