Fastest speed on a road bike? where? when? No idea, although it was probably back when I lived in Portland and on a mountain bike. So far this week, 28 mph is the fastest.

Another picture of yourself or your ride? Not yet

What is the biggest lie you've ever told: I can't remember.

Most memorable moment on my bike: Being grounded at age 8 or so for riding my bike down the middle of the road -- too bad my mom caught me! And every time I get on my bike to commute to work (or elsewhere) and know I don't have to drive my car! Yay!

Most fun ever had on a bike? The easy answer is "all the time!" I especially enjoy everyday activities, like riding to go get ice cream or meet friends.

Welcome Ellen and GreenMnt!

Ellen: how wonderful you found a bike that worked for you instead of just giving in. and bee pollination?? My aunt used to do that years ago when she lived on a farm. She has sinced moved back into town and given all that up but she sure did enjoy working with her bees!

Green: welcome to another bike commuter! Isn't is an Awesome day when you get to ride your bike to work?? I don't even think of it as being a "bike commute" anymore - it's how I get to work! Even when it's cold and I'm really whiney - I wouldn't drive!
