Maybe in the desert, but not in the mountains. Its suicide for the old knees.

Once you go triple, you never go back. 30-25 all the way for me. I have no shame (or knee pain).

I would consider a compact or even a 12-27, something I actually own but don't use. A triple, perhaps when my grandkids are through racing.

I've got 2 mirrors on my helmet, I still have the visor and I also have hooked up a small BBQ on the back of my bike. I'm looking to get a skull and cross bones flag to fly. Isn't it recommended to have a mouth guard too?!

It would be akin to riding a pink bike and advertising for the Gay Pride parade.

You also need to get a wine bag so that it drips down your beard.

But you're a cute girl, you're expected to do things like be color coordinated down to the toe nails.
