Its beautiful, congratulations!!!
I was just out in Dallas for Thanksgiving and could not believe the warm weather, I was bummed I didn't have a bike to ride. At least I got to run without feeling like my lungs were burning from cold. It has been frigid here lately. Enjoy your sweet ride and beautiful riding weather!The best part about going up hills is riding back down!

That really is a beautiful bike, K. And you look fantastic on it! Please give us ongoing updates on your experience... I'm seriously thinking about getting a Quintana Roo next year and I'd love to hear how one gets used to riding aero like that.

Yea, this bike kind of chose me...because it was on a close out special that I couldn't pass up.
Hhhhhuuuummm... that's a good name too.How about "HoneyBee"?
OH! Those are nice bikes. If you are serious about tri's, then it would probably be worth purchasing one. I will give updates on my comfort level on the bike. I am sure with many more miles it will happen.I'm seriously thinking about getting a Quintana Roo next year and I'd love to hear how one gets used to riding aero like that.
Yea, it was great weather! Even yesterday I was out running in shorts and a long sleeved shirt- and I was hot! Although today the weather has turned cold again... bbbbuuuurrrrr. But unless it's raining, I have the gear and I'm ready to ride!I was just out in Dallas for Thanksgiving and could not believe the warm weather, I was bummed I didn't have a bike to ride. At least I got to run without feeling like my lungs were burning from cold. It has been frigid here lately. Enjoy your sweet ride and beautiful riding weather!
Hee-hee... funny! Well, if she hadn't been on sale... that might work. Maybe I should come up with a name that goes along with the fact that I was lucky to find such a wonderful close out deal on her.It's beautiful. I'm envious!
how about "golddigger"
Well, I bought a yellow-ish jersey today! Although, I got it because it was on sale, not because of the colors, but I will match the bike.Now of course, you have to get all the matching black/yellow accessories....
Hhhhhhuuuummm... I would feel too much like I was naming her after the singer... but I like "The Stinger". HA!And I also love the name "sting"...but being a Hobbit fan, I would."Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather, to skid in broadside thoroughly used-up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming: WOW WHAT A RIDE!!!!"
