What is the biggest lie you've ever told: Does biggest mean worst or best?

Most memorable moment on my bike: Climbing Pinehurst for the first time when I realized, hey, I LOVE this, and I can DO this! And ALC2 was, of course, a lifechanging experience. I hope to do it again someday. I've taken a little riding hiatus after the birth of my daughter, but I'm back on the bike and looking forward to more memorable moments.

Most fun ever had on a bike? Riding with the Oakland Yellowjackets is always fun!
