Greetings from a fat girl on a bike!

[Trek420]

Lou looks like a very fine all-around bike. I like her color combo that would be easy to add accents if wanted.

Are we hinting that she needs a road bike? And a MTB, and a touring ..... told ya, we're enablers.

Congrats! Very inspiring.

You are such an inspiration! What you have accomplished is wonderful! Congrats and why don't you put Lou in your signature?

I will do just that!

Thank you much! I've signed up for a 50-mile charity ride in early October so I am training for that. The longest distance I have gone so far was last Sunday...a 30 mile charity ride. Signing up for these keeps me focused and training.

Goals are always good to have congratulations on your 30 miles, you will do fine on your 50 mile ride in 3 months! Add mileage steadily but not too much at a time.

I'm brand new here, and I think you are awesome! I would love to adopt your training schedule to get in better shape. I could probably stand to lose 40 pounds at least, and you make it sound so do-able.
