I am so new to cycling, today I put my 50th mile on the first bike I've had since I was 10.
It all started with a blind date with a cyclocrosser. I went out to see a few of the races and just LOVED watching those fools trotting around in the mud. Admittedly, the bike shorts did not detract from the spectacle. ;)
Things didn't get very far with the date, but I was completely infected by his enthusiasm for cycling.
I had to get some! Bought my Bianchi Strada 10/31 on Ebay. After my (now) friend the cyclocrosser put the thing together for me, I finally got to start riding it a week ago.
I've been out every clear day since. Love it love it love it!
As for me- geeky web grrl and all around couch potato in Seattle. What is with all this fresh air and excercise?!
I'm very glad I found this forum. I've already picked up some great information.
