My first ride

Well some of you may remember a few weeks ago I tried to ride my new bike for the first time and got caught up trying to get on and threw my back out. Well might as well be honest I started feeling better and couldnt get myself to try again for 4 or 5 days. (yep 340 lb guy was scared of a something that children do every day in this country) Well I finally did it I got on my bike and started riding. I made a few mistakes along the way, missed a few gears and for the most part had to look like an idiot to anyone watching but I didnt care. I was having fun. Now my biggest mistake was I had planned out a route that ended at a greasy spoon for breakfast so I didnt eat anything before I left. Looking back I wouldnt have driven my car with out fuel I have no idea why I wouldnt make sure my body had fuel before leaving. Anyway I made it 4.6 miles on my first go... Not as far as I had hoped but I guess I have to start somewhere.
