How exciting! Gorgeous new bike!

By the way Irulan, thanks to you and all the other Teamestrogen members, I have gotten MUCH better at mountain biking (the guys that rode with me one year ago noticed a HUGE improvement in me, especially regarding the descents).

A lot of the descents are still difficult for me since I am slow (which makes steep descents bumpier because I ride TOO slow) and I still can't help looking at all the dangerous cliffs, cracks, and small drop offs that I should NOT be focusing on. But I am better at line picking now. Maybe as I get better,in a few years, I too can go 27.5 instead of staying with my 29er (I still really like the 29er grip on the descents) because the 27.5 bike size would fit my small 5ft 1inch body better.
