Very nice - and I see what you mean about the colour! At least you won't be hard to spot on the trails! Congrats!!!

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

But what's her name? Male/female?
OK, stupid question... are women's bikes all named men? Unless you're batting for the other team, wouldn't you want to be riding a manly name?
And which is better for this bike, Snotrocket or Kermit?
Tee hee.

That bike looks female to me!
I vote for Calochortus, "Callie" for short or Tulip. She reminds me of spring...hence Tulip. She's also the color of monument plant, which is a gentian. But gentian sounds wrong.
Anyone know their lizards? There has to be a lizard that color...

Wow, on my monitor it looks like moonlight which is never white. Sorry, it even looks potato bug colored.
Maybe I need to check my monitor settings. Remember the old glow-in-the-dark stars you could stick on your ceiling? I like the color.
She's purty though. You have a nice set of components on that bike. Ride her till something needs replacing.
Ask what tires your folks in your area use. I don't know anything about those tires but tires can be very specific to the type of trail you ride (hardpack, volcanic, gummy, etc.).

I think potato bugs (aka Jerusalem crickets, aka child-of-the-earth) are more orange, aren't they? Thankfully, I haven't seen one in a while!

You're right, SK, it's more lunar and star-like than plant-like. Too bad "Luna" is a bike brand.
