Fastest speed on a road bike? where? when?
40 mph on the Allez. Can't remember when or where, but I guarantee a hill was involved! 49.9 on the Tandem...again a hill somewhere & why oh why didn't we let her go just a bit more for 50!

Another picture of yourself or your ride?
I'll try to post something up sometime. Too tired to bother tonight.


What is the biggest lie you've ever told:
I can't remember, which means I've either told too many, or I don't lie! (I'll let ya'll pick!)
- That works for me!

Most memorable moment on my bike:
I've had so many great moments, but oddly the day I demoed my little Rockhopper was the most memorable. Just a short little ride on a bike path, but I fell in love with that bike. I didn't buy it that day, but Dh bought it and gave it to me for my birthday/Christmas.


Most fun ever had on a bike?
Most fun ever was a couple weekends ago. Dh and I have started mtn. biking again, we spent 3 days in Bend Oregon riding trails. Rented a couple of FS bikes and had a blast rolling over rocks and roots. Who knew you could have so much fun going over the rough stuff. (Not that it was all that rough-they we're still easy trails). All bike rides are fun, but that weekend we took it to a new level!

Just wanted to post up and say Hi. I've lurked here off and on for a couple years actually as a guest, and thought it was time to sign up.
