Figured it's time I did this:
Real name: Chris (Christine)
Where do you live?: San Jose, CA
Explanation of your handle: Tucker was the name of my first Aussie. We did search and rescue together. I needed an email address for the onslaught of email I would be expecting about search, and as it involved Tucker, too, I settled on "Andtckrtoo - or And Tucker Too. I lost my buddy in March of 2007, one week before his fifth birthday. I was devastated, so I keep the name in memory of the best darned dog there ever was. Jimmy, the guy in my avatar, is a close second, but I doubt any dog will every fully match Tucker. His kind only come around once in a life time.
Explanation of your avatar: My furbaby Jimmy
Age (general or specific): 44
Occupation: Software sales
Favorite bike: My Cannondale CAAD 9
What's in your stable?: Cannondale CAAD 9 R5, Trek 8000 MTB, Trek 7000 MTB, retired Klein Stage.
Fastest speed on a road bike? where? when?: My descent down Hwy 9 last week. I hit 40 mph. (Then freaked and hit the brakes )
Another picture of yourself or your ride?: I'll see if I can dig some up
What is the biggest lie you've ever told: When my DH confronted me about my ever growing exercise video collection, "Oh honey, they've always been there. You just never noticed." He bought it for a while... :P
Most memorable moment on my bike: Completing my first century. I had met this group of older gentlemen who rode with me the entire ride and cheered me on to my first 100 mile finish.
Most fun ever had on a bike?: A fall day in Cloudcroft, New Mexico riding a long mountain bike trail through the turning Aspens, with a group of friends. Weather was perfect, company was perfect and the ride was all day.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
Cycle! It's Good for the Wattle; it's good for the can!
