Hello all,
I have just started (about a month ago) cycling and have been bitten by the bug hard. A bunch of my coworkers and fellow MX racers ride together and had been bugging me to join them, so I bought a bike (05 Trek 2100) and am riding 2-3 times a week now. I ride (exclusively, for now) the Silver Comet Trail in west GA. I probably average 15 miles a ride and am seeing improvement each time, although it isn't drastic. I have one of my race bikes for sale and when that goes away I'm buying my wife a bike. I also plan to investigate a trailer for my 3 year old daughter (which means if she'll ride in it I'm buying one). I sell motorcycle parts for a living and luckily the owner of my LBS rides motorcycles too, so it works out well... mutual back-scratching discounts!
Looking forward to getting to know you all,
Barry
