Thanks for the encouraging words and advice, that really means alot.
I just had some bad experiences with people making fun of me or not taking me serious because of my weight, so i'm a bit apprehensive to got to a shop.
Like the other day: in Holland you can get a tax reduction for buying a bike when you use it for 50% of your commutes. This is arranged via your employer. So i contacted HR that i was looking for a bike and asking if i could get a tax reduction. The HR lady didn't believe i was able to make the 30 km round trip bike commute. I finally ended up sending her a screenshot of my sportypal apps that states all my rides.
I felt so discouraged.
But i guess i just need to bite the bullet.

Anyone else with my weight have some good experiences with road/cyclo? bikes

p.s. i just checked out the Domane i really like it. Just need to sift through all the models......
