She is fine and didn't say anything about the bike so I assume it is also fine, apparently it was 34° today in Austin. FWIW she turns 70 at the end of April...go MOM.
Here she is with her new Ruby.
*GASP* that is one of my biggest fears when i ride now... falling/crashing on my new bike!

(well... i mean i didn't want to crash or fall on my dolce... or even my mountain bike.. but you know what i mean! crash ruby! *GASP*)
it looks like she got the comp version (black) nice!!!!!!! i LOVE black bikes! (of course... it could be the blue expert and i just can't see the color in the pic!) regardless... if she sends more pics.. i'd love to see more pics of her version!!!! (i really, really, really wanted a black bike! lol! i LOVE black bikes... oh... i said that already!)
tell your mom CONGRATS from another member of the RUBY CLUB!
p.s. with that cute pink seat bag... that bike is screaming for pink handlebar tape and maybe even a few chris king pink accessories! lol!
