Residenze: Hiawassee, Georgia

Bikes I ride: The Cannondale R2000 that I've used to pedal off nearly 35 lbs, & a Jamis Dakar Sport to ride in the pasture instead of my daughters' comfort bike, when I want to 'get a little mud on the tires'. (Lately, at night while asleep, I've been scouring hill & dale in the pale moonlight on a pink ... ooops, magenta Spanish beauty. Since, I'm new at this & just guessing, all I can come up with is it's just a bad case of bike lust. ;-)

Other Bikes I own: Other Bikes I own: The bike that got me off the couch & on two wheels: a Trek Navigator, (think adult beginner bike minus training wheels).

How I support by Bike Habit: Make sure my hubby has a good view of 'the legs' as he balances the check book.

Best Time on the Bike: Hopefully, sometime in the not too distant future.

Worst Time on the Bike: When you fall off the bike, wipe out, crash i.e. go down hard! But, never was a bad time had ON the bike.

My Motto: Danged if I know.

Favorite Post-Ride Food: Cold Weather: Coffee in any of its' hot versions & bowl of soup & good bread. Hot weather: Cold beer or good red and a super nice salad w/ chicken or fish .& oh, good bread. (Ice cream is appropriate at all times of the year.)

Favorite Web Site: Let's see, that would be. besides all the Bella sites, then cycling sites www.hgtv.com

Grab Bag: I want to grow old, and be the granny with the mostest someday, (if you know what I mean). I'm talking calves, quads, hamstrings & did I say HAMS already?
