There is SO much information to learn about cycling. And running is soooooo cheap and easy compared to cycling. But I'm loving it.

I am telling you just beward of tris! Expensive with a capital E!! <br />In all seriousness glad you got something out of the book! You will like cycling more once you kind of get it down!! :) I also didn't like going downhill when I started but I love it and embrace it now!!!<br />Also learn how to change a flat!

I make it easier when I go up hills, harder other times. I don't think I change rings. Like ever.

We just didn't mesh. I was scared to take it out in the country alone. So I sold it because Mike was giving me grief about buying such an expensive bike and having it sit in the garage where it barely ever got moved. Now my foot is donzo and I am wishing I had kept it.
