Hi Ms. katiemac, I hope you wont mind the intrusion or other disrespect, please ignore me at will, but is there any chance in the next few years that there will be many/any male riders in your company? On a regular basis? If so, I suggest you opt for a light weight bike like the sporty Diverge A1. You'll be glad if your bike accelerates faster when you're sprinting for the line. Haha, Jokes aside, I think it is far better to buy what you want to ride today and leave concerns about something 3 years away in perspective.

Whatever you do. Make sure there's a good amount of red in the paint scheme because everyone knows red bikes are fastest.
