    Yeah, I already love the bike! Since I'm self-employed, none of the rest of the money will go for anything fun. I'm having a root canal tomorrow and sometime in the future need a bunionectomy and another colonoscopy. Do I know how to have fun or what!!!!????

    Sweet!
    I'm sure Auntie is happy that you are spending some of the $$ on something fun.
    Who wants to be remembered with a root canal?!
    Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.

    Very cool story! I love my Ruby and I hope you love yours too. I'm 5'1" and my 44 cm fits me wonderfully!

    My other Specialized (Dolce) was a 44cm and I was happy with it's fit until I tried the 50cm and REALLY love it's fit. Even though we're both 5'1" our bodies are probably very different, huh? I had my seat all the way back and had to alter the handlebars on the Dolce which should of been an indictor that maybe it wasn't the best fit for me. Also, because I was in such an aggressive position on that bike, my already bad hand issues got worse. I'm hoping that won't be the case on my new bike.

    You guessed it. I have really, really short legs and a long torso. I am thinking of raising the handle bars the tiniest bit because my neck sometimes gets sore.
