    Real name: Traci

    Where do you live? St. Louis

    Explanation of your handle: I figure that's an easy one.

    Explanation of your avatar: Still looking

    Age (general or specific) 41

    Occupation: Bike Shop manager

    Favorite bike: Lemond Buenos Aires

    What's in your stable? Buenos Aires, older Gary Fisher Kaitai, and a frankenbike (old, free Schwinn frame with a hodge podge of parts)

    Fastest speed on a road bike? where? when? 45, Marshall Road in St. Louis, last summer. This road is part of various routes around west county.

    What is the biggest lie you've ever told: Like everyone else, I don't tell lies.

    Most memorable moment on my bike: Luckily I wasn't on my bike, but unfortunately the most memorable event is one that I would rather not remember. I had my bike on my roof rack and backed up under an awning at work to unload some helmets. I completely destroyed my frame. I did this one week before I was scheduled to ride in the MS150. I was able to get a lower price replacement frame and build it up Thursday night. I went to the ride on Friday. I rode the new frame a little Thursday night and Friday morning on rollers to get things dialed in.

    Most fun ever had on a bike? Finishing a ride feeling strong and fast.

    Welcome all! You've come to a great place!

    7- Where do you go to school and what critters are you working on. My M.S. dealt with a combo of behavior (kin recognition) and molecular biology - recognition of genetic relatedness through chemical cues in salamanders. I went more towards population genetics (marine shrimp) with the Ph.D., though. When do you expect to finish?
