From: Bay Area, Duh!

Bikes: Caad 9.5, Madone 6 series, Speed Concept 7 series.

- When i started cycling I made fun of guys wearing lycra, but now i love wearing super tight clothing, and feel ridiculous if i have to ride in running shorts.

- I feel self-conscious about my weight when cycling with others(i'm not fat, 5'9" 160lbs- coming down from 190ish but i'm still the fatty of the group)

- I love riding, can hold my own on the flats, but can't climb to save my life. The moment I see a hint of a hill, I freeze.

- I would love to be a triathlete but i can't swim to save my life. I took my first swimming lesson approximately 3 months ago and I'm well north of 20 years of age.

- Both of my bikes are WAY too much bike for my ability but i still feel the urge to upgrade them.

- I just got an aero helmet for my next Tri and I look ****ing ridiculous with it on.

- I have a final tomorrow morning and should probably study for the remainder of the evening, but i say F u, professional ethics, I will do my weekly TT at 6pm today and not feel bad about the two hour commitment.

- I have still not learned to adjust either derailleur. =(
