I think I'll name him Hector

[kismet09]

So I got a new bike yesterday at REI -- it's a K2 Rosario, but my bike has to be a boy (because it's a boy bike -- my last bike was a girl bike --I prefer the lower bar on a women's bike, but I also thought I'd buy a bike that corresponded to my height, and there is no such women's bike at REI). Thus, he will be called Hector. He fit me fine at the store, but this morning, I realized I was wearing 1 1/2" heeled boots while assessing the frame size, so now I'm scared that he will be too big for me. At 7 this morning, though, I didn't feel like wandering downstairs to check it out, so I will do so after work. In any case, he's a lot bigger than my current bike, which is for the better.

While surfing around bike links, I found wombats.org, which made me giggle.

It was too cold and windy to take it out for a real ride yesterday (although I rode it briefly around the REI parking lot), and today it was snowing as I left. Boo.
