    BikeNovice.com - a site for road bike begginers and enthusiasts

    My site is for like-minded folk:
    My name is Christopher, and I’m a middle-aged road bike cyclist who rides about twice a week, not counting the occasional bicycle commutes to work. I’m a “weekend warrior” so to speak. My rides average about 40 miles or so, but I’ve ridden as much as 110 in a solo ride. I’ve got three organized centuries (100 mile rides) under my belt as well, with a fourth coming in August. At 5’9″ with a 195lb carcass, I’m no Alberto Contador, and don’t plan to be anything like him. I simply want to keep my weight down and live healthy while doing something fun.

    You misspelled "Beginner".

    Other than that, your site is okay. But I'm looking at the 13November2011 entry, and I think Gear Charts are a little beyond what "Beginners" are ready for.

    Is this a re-post? or is your next century coming in August 2012? That's still nine months away.
    Check List:
    1. headlight and tail-light, 2. rearview mirror, 3. reflective vest, 4. Brakes! make sure the brakes work on the bicycle! , 5. a horn and bell. , 6. Stop, look, and listen, when coming to an intersection. LOOk both ways before crossing the street. , 7. Right Size? is the bicycle the right size for the rider? , 8. Wear a helmet.
