Hi everybody! I'm new to biking, trying to take up the sport so I can ride with my husband -- who has done lots of road biking. (All of Route 66, also some of the Tour de France course last summer) I'm 49, done tons of spin classes, and just picked up my bike today! An Orbea -- very cool. I plan to put on a lot of miles, and enjoy cruising along our beautiful lakefront. Also want to try the hills in WI.
wish me luck! I need to get into shape, lose some weight, and pick up some speed to ride with my more experienced husband. What should my first goals be? Speed? Just putting on lots of mileage?
See you around
