    Wink Birthday new bike!

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    So first I am super excited! Why you ask??? Well I have been riding my lovely comfort bike now for 3 months and have put in some miles and lost some weight. Happy yes. Now I am ready for the next step though. The reason I have been riding more is that my mom has a bike now and we ride together. However I think that may change soon. My husband went and put money down on my new Bike. I am getting a Jamis road bike! I am super excited. So I am hoping to have it soon. A few more photography gigs will pay for it. I just had to share my excitement. Oh and we are trying to sell the comfort otherwise I would let my mom have that and ride it. Until we sell it though I am going to ride it.

    Its with a little regret. I decided to not get the road bike. Me and my mom would have been not even close to the same level if I would have done that. SO I decided to keep my Felt Versa and put on Crank brothers candy pedals and run a clip less system. MOST AMAZING THING EVER! I have to thank my LBS Bike One and Randy. With out them I could have made a mistake that well could have cost me some money and I wouldnt have been as happy.
