    Another Leo here... my really beautiful custom bike has yet to manifest itself!

    I just have one bike - Specialized Sequoia Elite with the plain old paint job. But as of this week, every single component has now been swapped out (except for the FD, whose days are numbered!)

    But I was born 2 months premature - so am I really a Leo?

    Virgo here...
    Being a practical and analytical person (and a bit of a perfectionist), I only have one bike, my Giant OCR1, Rio. Before purchasing said bike, I analyzed every angle and checked out all components and options.
    About the perfectionist thing, I was devistated when Rio got scratched! (I'm going to have to buff it out.)

    Virgo here too, on the libra cusp. I have a Fuji Provence and a new Luna Eclipse in red. Both great bikes for me although the Luna has soul. The perfectionist in me likes the Luna's details and put socks on the rack so she doesn't get scratched.

    Another Virgo here, but with Libra rising and my moon in Aries. My friends who are really into astrology could never guess I was a Virgo. Guess there really must be something to that rising sign and the moon after all...?

    I have 3 bikes... a road bike - Giant OCR3, a mountain bike - Specialized Stumpjumper FSR, and a beater/commuter bike - Specialized HardRock. I guess my practical Virgo side as well as my need for balance Libra side goes for the idea that every bike has a specific purpose. With 3 bikes, I guess my impulsive Aries side thinks it makes sense too

    I have 4 bikes and each one serves exactly the purpose it was designed for! I also use them constantly to feel free and alive and hyper-aware of just how wonderful my life is!

    My Sign: Sag!


    (see: even my sign is bike-related! LOL)
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

    I can definitely relate to this!

    Another Leo. No fancy bike....an OCR3 that was cheap enough but could do what I wanted it to do.
    Maybe I subconsciously didn't want a bike that outshined me.

    Hmm, I'm a Cancer as well but don't feel that I really fit the description at all
    (my domestic skills are limited to unlocking my door when I get home and locking it when I leave ) I own 1 mountain bike and 1 road bike and only carry what I absolutely need at that time (cell phone, ID, water, etc.)

    But, travelling by means other than bicycle I'll pack everything but the kitchen sink (although not from lack of trying with that!) Drives my SO crazy...I swear he's able to fit a couple of weeks worth of stuff into a ziplock bag.

    I'm a Libra - and I definitely like balance. I have 2 bikes, 2 kids and everything must be equal and lined up. I've been known to line up all the equipment in my lab to be in line with the edge of the benchtop (I do this when I am particularly stressed). I'm not sure if that's Libra or not, but that's me.

    I'm not sure how my sign relates to biking, but I think peace, love and understanding just rocks! bikerHen

    Another Leo who is to cheap for custom. Haven't been riding much lately, but am looking forward to being on two wheels again (and not the cheating way).

    So capricorns are stubborn, practical, disciplined, and have a somewhat cynical sense of humor. I guess my bike being named after a guy who got shot in the chest and went on to win Le Tour says something about being stubborn and disciplined
    Cappy on a custom Coppi here. Don't we like our things "right" as well? God bless that LBS for letting me try everything!!

    As I see it, biking is racing in the wind and Aquarius being an air sign...sort of like flying on the ground.

    Another Sag

    Sagittarians...They are honorable, honest, trustworthy, truthful, generous and sincere, with a passion for justice.

    Purple is the color of justice. It is also the color of my Dolce!!!
