It's very weird...since age 17 I've been 6' 8 1/2").

Weight 210lbs Was 220 when I started biking in April for the first time since childhood.

Mostly ride on the mountain roads around Asheville, NC. Have found some nice fairly flat rides along rivers.
16 to 40 miles / 3-4 times a week. I have resisted getting a bike GPS or speedometer.
Good plan.

I was in your neck of the woods a couple weeks ago for the Greensboro 1000k. Some beautiful views, and I was pleasantly surprised at how polite traffic was on twisty hilly roads.
