New Bike - Happy Lee!

WOW!
Astronomically Better.
I rode my new bike for the first time yesterday after getting it fit by Tory at Old Town Cycles in Tacoma.  It was fast & smooth up 31st (4 block steep hill by the shop) and fast & smooth on the flats along the waterfront.  It is light, responsive and shifts sooo smoothly.  It's also a incredibly beautiful machine.  I can't wait to ride it on a long ride in the sunshine!

I'm planning on riding this Sat (1:30 tempo riding - start time depends on the weather forcast) and Sunday start at 9:30 AM for 2:30 riding (40ish miles - w/ 15+mph average)  - if it is wet I'll be on my Lemond, if it is dry I'll be riding the new bike!!!!
Does anyone want to join me for a ride?

I almost want to buy a bike because you look so damn happy! Congrats on your new (apparently lightweight) toy!

Beautful Lee, the bike too! How was your Sunday ride? Sounds like things are going great!!!
Emily and I mentioned breakfast would be fun one of these days. Maybe we can run (everyone at their own distance), then meet for breakfast.
