    I have a feeling I met you at a wedding a couple months ago. The crazy girl that talked about doing 100 mile road rides in a day? Welcome to the dirty side.

    Tasia and Robby? OMG...yes, that's me. :lol: I did 240 miles the next day...that was a sufferfest. I didn't mean to stay that long at the reception and think I had about four hours of sleep that night.

    Yes, I've been posting at BF for a few years now. Guilty as charged!

    Isn't that the first step in the road to recovery? :lol: I'll never give up the road, it's too easy to leave from my house and I really do enjoy the long distance riding. I'll have to find a way to split my time once I get the mountain bike.

    Unfortunately that won't be until May, but the order has been placed!

    Yep, that was me. That reception was brutal... I could hardly make myself breakfast in the morning. That night was part of the reason I took a month break from drinking.

    I just did my first 20 mile ride last weekend! 240 is insane. Let me know if you want to do Whiting or Luge sometime... those are my afterwork specials.

    :lol: That's my family for ya. :beer: :drunk:The few glasses of red wine that I had (one of your friends kept pouring me more, I think he was trying to get me drunk...lol) were more than enough for me!

    I'd love to ride as soon as my bike arrives...I'm confident in my skills on the road but could use some pointers on the dirt.

    Hey welcome Brandy. what color did you get? the white looks awsome when its nice and clean probably better than black, but once it gets a little muddy it doesnt look as well. Anyways, if you ever want to join us for a trail ride send a pm. good group that would be willing to get you going in the dirt :wave:

    Thanks for the offer, I'm definitely going to hit all of you up when the bike arrives.

    I ended up ordering another white bike...I'm a creature of habit!
