    Jo - Congratulations! Couldn't have happened to a nicer person. Many happy miles on your new Dolce......

    ps---I recently donated my red Dolce Comp (same vintage/make as your old one). That bike was a workhorse that logged many many miles in the rain/on wet pavement. I expect your new Dolce will be as hardy as the 2005 version. ENJOY

    On thank you, thank you for all the kind words.

    In my research I probably have a 90mm on the Ruby and looking at the conversion chart an 80 will probably be perfect. I would imagine that is the size that my husband had brought home for me.

    Since it gets dark so early now I will ride my new bike on the trainer tonight for my first trainer ride of the season. At least it gave me a new spark of excitement to get back on the trainer

    yes, a pic will follow

    You are very sweet, thank you.

    My Dolce Comp went to a club member who shipped it to California where her daughter lives so she would have a road bike to ride when she was visiting over there. She and her husband are the nicest people and glad that it has a good home.
