Newbie here
Got a used (but new to me) Giant Sedona from my brother yesterday. Guess it was his not so subtle way of saying I need to get in shape. Not that I hate him for it, because basically he's right.
Anyway, I known about this site for a while but figured it was time to officially join in so I can get (and hopefully at some point to give) even more great advice for the questions I'm sure I'll have.
Looking forward to joining in on all the great conversations.

Hello and Welcome to Bike Forums.
Some pics of you and the bike would be so cool.
Use them later for before and after Threads.

Welcome to BF! That bike your brother gave you (depending of course on how things go) may turn out to be one of you lifetime most used and most treasured possessions. Here’s hoping it does!

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone.
Pictures may be forthcoming. I'm not a huge (no pun intended) fan of pictures, so I'm still thinking about whether I will post any or not.
