You can take the lass out of Yorkshire. But you cant take the Yorkshire out of the lass....Thats assuming you are a Yorkshire lass. I am originally from Hull but have spent the last 13 years in Denmark and I love it. Especially when it is sunny. like today.
I also have a Trek Lexa SL. As it is a woman specific bike, the shorter crossbar sits me up a bit more which I like. I also find it very useful for commuting my 40km round trip. I added a rear rack and mudguards. I changed the saddle to a new Brooks Imperial which I bought off
ebay Germany for £8. When it arrived I realised that I had made a mistake and it was a womans Imperial saddle. I put it on and rode 100 miles the first day and it was comfy enough. Which isnt bad for a Brooks straight out of the box. It looks a bit odd on a road bike, but I am more for function than form and I cant see it when Im sat on it. I have changed the tyres to 25c and I would suggest you do that for a 100 miler. It gives a far comfier ride.
