Message: If you have ever thought about going faster,
you should try, especially if it is purely to enjoy the smoothe pavement
beneath you, feel the wind created by you and your bike, and the ache
of your muscles that power your pedals.
Women bike racers have a wonderful combination of brains
and strength and mostly we enjoy riding and working together as friends
and as a team.
