Hi! Im Steve, Im from Kingwood (NE.Houston)
I cycled every day when I was a kid, from about 7 years old, up until around 20. I was very active, playing sports at high levels and just generally a fit guy. Now Im 28 and well into Clyde territory (Ive been reading the forum:D). Im looking to get back on my bike and get back down to sub 200lbs.
First up....to find a bike. Im 6ft3, 275lbs. Ive done some lurking on the site to try and get an idea of what I want. I would like to stay below $500 for my first bike, which I guess means a used bike? (Im looking for a road bike not MTB)
As an incentive to keep working hard, Ive decided to put the purchase of my new car on hold until I get to 200lb:(
