Hi all. I live in Walnut Creek and just bought my first road bike to replace an old Trek Su1000 I used to tool around on. The new bike is an '06 Scott Speedster S30 in great condition with an all 105 drive train with an Ultegra r/d. I'm 5'11" and 245 lbs. Plan to use biking to drop some of that weight off. Marriage, a new kid, a new job and a move from southern california have conspired to interrupt any workout schedule I used to have. I hope to ride my first century in the spring of '11. I'm definitely interesting in meeting bay area riding partners at my same level of ability (i.e. rank newbie)
