SWBKRUN- Miles and Miles ahead!!!! CLOSED (Page 71)

Sweeeet! Can't wait to see it all put together!

I bet you are going to win all your Triathlon BMX races on that!

Beautiful!  Yay, now my bike has a twin, too!

Very nice Suzy, looks cool.  Can't wait to see it put together.

Interesting there is no rear-wheel cutout on it.  I wonder if the smaller geometry wouldn't let them do that.

Trina,

yeah there are few things you "must" have.  If you can get some clip on bars, by all means do.  But remember they do make the bike more difficult to handle. 

I used clip-ons for the first year on my road bike and it worked out pretty well.

Suzy -- Absolutley B-E-A-U-tiful!  I'm excited to see how it comes together, it's been a long time in the waiting!

Trina, I also used clip-on aerobars (on my road bike) for my first year.

Trevor!  M'Man!   AWESOME!!!!

Suzy... ABOUT FRIKIN' TIME!!!!  LOVE IT!!

just in from swim lesson getting taped.  lol.  by far i learned the most in the shortest period of time.  its really amazing to see myself in the water and even more amazing to discuss with coach what we saw, how to correct it and immediately correct it.  also endless pools are pretty cool.   i should get the vids tomorrow.  will post em so at least you guys can get a good laugh.

I promise not to laugh!  I'll learn something from it too!!

Jeremy

I might not make the call....waiting for my bike fitter to get here.  He is an hour late! Take good notes!

Suzy

Take notes?? What am I, your secretary?  j/k  I'll make an attempt, but I'm at work tonight.  Wish I had a way to record streaming audio.  They usually post the audio for later listening... usually.  BUT, since I know the importance of nutrition AND the importance of your new hooptie, I'll take some notes.

I have such total bike envy!! How exciting for you! Post pics again when she's all put together. Congrats! 

Suzy, you're taking up all the time with questions - go get your fitting done

Here is suzy's bike all fitted out:



Just kidding Suzy! As the others have said I look forward to seeing the full build.

Doug

Huh? Did they answer one of my questions? damn!  I am finally on the call at7:30pm.

HAHAHAHA!

You funny, Doug!

Suzy - Your bike is absolutely beautiful! Red is my favorite color, too!

Ohhhhhh! Nice I love Red too!
What size is it? Do you put 650C wheels on it? Are you building it or having it built?

Trina, Re: your required list...my wife rides in her running shoes and loves it.  Is almost offended when I suggest she get some riding shoes.  Her T2 in her first tri was something like 41 seconds.
And a transition pack...I stole my son's back pack for the day.

Virtual tri - how about average time rather than total time.  I'll participate, but may not be able to get all three events in.  If we use average then having an individual miss an event won't mess everything up.

Suzy, that frame is SWEEEEET!!!!!  Does it come with a hook to hang on a Christmas tree?  Or will you have to bend your own paper clip? 
Based on the base molding behind it the seat tube can't be more than 14-15 inches tall.

My turn to rant...
I had a mole removed from my lower back on Dec 29.  While the stitches were in I've been strength training and riding. Today I got the stitches out.  As I was setting my heater up in the garage before strength training I feel like I get shot in the back.  The incision tears open and blood is everywhere.  Doc doesn't want to re-stitch so now I have steri-strips and glue.  Can't do anything for a couple days.  Biggest problem...shoots my "31 workouts in January" plan.
I get a medically induced two day's rest
Rant off...

You are welcome....  

Congrats...We'll see you there.

Great job.  That is a super improvement.

Suzy...Glad you are getting to run again tomorrow but that is GREAT NEWS about your friend Bob.  Our thoughts and prayers are still with him and you and your husband.

Steve
