Thanks for all of the welcomes! Yes, Lise...my husband is a police officer and he works for a department in Los Angeles. I predict that he'll catch the cycling bug soon. He seemed very interested in riding in the memorial ride next year and he's talked about applying for the bike detail at work!

I got my bike this afternoon I am so excited and can't wait to ride it. Unfortunately, this weekend is packed full of other obligations (I'm taking my orientation to become a Spinning instructor tomorrow!!!) and I have no childcare available I'm just going to have sit here and look at her for awhile

My eight year old son is so interested in this new bike. He is amazed that he can pick it up by himself because it's so much lighter than his BMX bike. He's asking questions every few minutes...Do they make road bikes for kids? Do you think I could start riding with you? etc. He has a twinkle in his eye, so I'm thinking I might have a partner in crime here!
