    My 50th birthday bike (2 years later, it's a long story). She needs a name. I wasn't sure I'd like such an upright ride but she really is sweet.
    I'm going to guess that you got the frame for your birthday and it took you two years to build it up. No? That's what happened to me! I got the same frame for our 10th wedding anniversary 1.5 years ago and mine is still in the process of being built up. I hope to ride it for the first time before the end of September! I'll share a photo when it's done.

    Your's is lovely!

    Very much buyer beware situation but rides far better than expected.
    RE names for a white mixte - I went with Astrid, but Lily is a great suggestion, wish I'd thought of that!

    I sold/traded both of my mixtes but I still come here and droll over these.
