I am (will be) new to riding outside!

I am a 26 yr old female. Attend high intensity spin classes 3-4 times a week but now want to ditch those and get outside!

I considered road bikes, but have decided on a hybrid (road type) due to the roads i will be cycling on (commuting and weekend"exploring").

I am fully aware of that cycling outside will be a completely different experience and challenge!!

After advice for starting out. Have heard that the first few cycles are the worst and to stick with it! Once i get used to my bike and improve fitness outside i will enjoy? how many times would you say?

Any advice for starting out and staying safe will be most appreciated!

Thanks in advance and i look forward to speak to you all more in the future
