My Shiny New Velo Bella-Kona Bike!

The frame has been sitting around my house for almost a year, but this week I finally got all the various parts and pieces together, thanks to sponsors Kona, Easton, Giro, Crank Brothers, Bikeman, and my favorite bike shop, Conte's , who built up my bike.



She's soooo pretty! I'm thinking that I need a pink saddle too. Maybe Santa's watching!


I'll be doing my very first Cyclocross race on the bike tomorrow, DCCX, the first and only cross race inside the District! I rode the bike today for about an hour since the rain has finally stopped. I'm not very good at clipping into the "eggbeater" pedals, so tomorrow shall be entertaining.
