    I bought a bike, I bought a bike!!

    I will be doing a happy dance once it comes in of course. But for now I am wearing a smile. I decided on the Scott Foil 30 in a 47cm. I just really like the SRAM shifting. The owner threw in shoes with my purchase so he is ordering them for me. The Shimano R170 Women's in black. I need to go buy some pedals but I decided on the Speedplay chromoly zero in black although it would be nice to get yellow ones since my bike has black and yellow to it(my vanity comes out). So hopefully my bike will come in wednesday, the owner will do a fitting and I can ride on thursday.


    After trying out the Amira with SRAM then going back again to the other shop to try the Scott Contessa Foil with the 105 I decided I did want a Scott but with SRAM.

    Actually, I've also bought a new bike recently. It is equipped with carbon frames and carbon wheels.

    If any of you ladies happen to be stopping by.. so sorry for lagging on the pictures....here is my bumblebee! hope this works

    She is a 47cm with SRAM all around. I got an initial fitting and will go back for another fit/tune up at 100 mile mark. I put speedplay chromoly zeros and have been exploring the neighborhood bike lanes so far. I would love to do cycle the wave if I still live in this area come Sept. Hubby has been exploring job options in CA so I don't know yet if I can register.

    Gorgeous bike, enjoy!
    Life goes by pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, and do whatever you want all the time, you could miss it.
