Foo - Highlight of my week

Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.
Sorry, I just have to brag... I started riding with a group of men/women on Friday nights a couple weeks ago. I got an e-mail today from a woman I ride with in the group, and in it, she said this:
"Was thinking of you this week when I was talking to my coach.
You're such a natural talent on the bike. You hardly look like you're struggling even
when you're keeping
up with the Friday night men!"
Yeah, that was definitely the highlight of my week. :D :o

Hi Siu! :D

No no no, the highlight was the part where she said I'm a "natural on a bike". The other stuff was great too, though.
And thanks to the rest of you for the compliments!! :D

Congratulations. That's quite a compliment. If they say "You hardly look like you're struggling even
when you're keeping up with the Friday night men!" that probably means you're looking strong even when you're trying to hang in there. With more speed and milage, you'll soon be setting the pace.

I bet the horseback riding gives you a great sense of balance (or vice versa). Great job.
Next step... USCF license and your first Cat 5 race. :)

:D I'm hoping to race next year! And I think the horseback riding has definitely helped with my bike riding.

I'm not saying I could keep up with the guys... I couldn't. They could drop me in a second. :p

No hetero guy would ever consider droping you on a ride.
Its, well, inconceivable.

Too funny...
Doesn't surprise me that you're strong on the bike. Horse riding, especially English style, really works the legs.

That is a still from teh movie "The Princess Bride". The bald headed guy was always saying that things were inconceivable. The bearded mustachioed guy would do the inconceivable thing, and finally told the bald headed guy "I do not think it means what you think it means".

ah..thanks for the enlightment. I have never seen this piece of filmwork, and since I do not believe it contains much in the way of topless women or large explosions, I probably won't be seeing it in the future :D

The bearded mustachioed guy man in black (Dread Pirate Roberts) would do the inconceivable thing, and mustachioed guy finally told the bald headed guy "I do not think it means what you think it means".

I just flushed the highlight of my week about 20 mins ago. I should have snapped a pic.
BOYS RULE!
Corrected.
That is not the Dread Pirate Roberts. The young kid on the rope was the dread Pirate Roberts. The man in black in the photo I posted is Inigo Montoya.

That's who I was referring to (noone in the picture is dress in black). I didn't elaborate.
