I got a lot of pictures of this girl...

After looking at this bike here, I see her name is Liz Hatch (as I see Hatch on the frame of the bike).

She looked like the most attractive female racer today. :thumbsup: Too bad she didn't make the podium.

I think this is her from her myspace page.

she posts here and will probably read this.

Needs to cut that steerer.

Appears to be commone in women's racing. *gulp*

Aka Roubaixgirl on myspace, she also has a column in ROAD magazine, just got sponsored by Vanderkitten to do a fairly full road schedule.

She's a nice girl, presuming the version on myspace is really her, since you can never REALLY tell...

Steerer isn't cut as I was waiting for parts from Reynolds. Parts have arrived, steerer will be cut. Looks gross, I know.

You should have them leave a little above the stem so that you can put an 1/8-1/4"pacer under the cap. This reduces the chances of the stem tightening crushing the steerer tube. Just making sure that you knew that.

You people were looking at the steerer?

I mean, really.

hey, outta curiosity, Easton fork, Ritchey stem -- what Reynolds parts?

And, who's the bike sponsor this year? I can't quite read the tube...

You can tell when cyclists are guys, we're more interested in her bike and its
blingy components than her own admirable chassis.

I wouldn't want to see her hurt in a crash on that stem.

Wonder what they are doing with that extra long stem? Anyone for hide the stem?:D

i hope everytime there's a liz/roubaix girl posting there's a mini-discussion as to whether or not she's nice, is her mypace persona the real persona, is she into self-promotion, und so weiter...

What kind of fork is that....you need to cut your steerer..blah,blah, blah....My God could you kiss her ass anymore than you are now......I'm sorry but I'm looking at her incredible lungs and nothing else.....just my opinion, but he right opinion......Crit

Why? Someone has to kiss all those boob-boos to make them feel better.....:thumbsup:

Orly? Srsly?

And from just a few days ago, in this very forum, I present you http://forums.roadbikereview.com/showthread.php?t=96432.

Pretty girls turns heads; Roubaix Girl breaks necks! :)

Why is there this constant need to psycho-analyze and find fault with any good looking woman on this thread? Who cares! She's good looking and she rides a bike. What else do you need to know?

What else? NOTHING at all ICEBOX...

GO GET EM LIZ, HAVE A GREAT SEASON, Kick butt and forget taking names, it's time consuming and most of your competition won't be remembered anyway, right?

Me, I think her saddle is too high and her leg is way too extended, but that's just me.

I would tend to agree with last one, Looks like it close to hyper extension..Steerer tube blaggh.. Who cares..She rides, she kicks butt, and thats really all that matters...

And, she rides Campy...

Are you sure she is actually fully seated, and not in transition from seated to standing or standing to seated?

/personally I think Liz Hatch is getting hopelessly overexposed.....famous (ish) for being famous (ish).....it can be fickle though.
