Hello all! I just moved to NJ from Seattle (humidity is killing me) and I started road riding a bit. Took my first ride on Sunday for 13 miles and felt great. Took a ride last night and could barely do 10 miles. grrrrr.

I am a big guy at 324 pounds and looking to use road riding to help lose weight, get fit, and have fun.

Yesterday I felt embarrased becasue I did a class D ride and could only do 10 miles and they had to wait up a lot for me.

I have a ride I signed up for in PA on Saturday.... 25 miles with 7 stops at farms for a 20 minute break and to see and learn about the farm. I am wondering if I should do this ride. Humid and hot are in the forcast.

I always wanted to ask if you all felt the same way when you started your journey on your bike?
