First came the gloves/mitts.

Then ditching the messenger bag.

Then the helmet.

Then the glasses.

Then the jersey.

Now the shoes/pedals.

Soon the shorts (I'm a bit hesitant about this one so I might just go with liner shorts).

Maybe a hydration pack soon (though this is more of a mountain-biking thing).

Getting there.

And I've never owned a road bike in my life!
