Nice. I just got started riding about three weeks ago with just my new Cannondale, a helmet and a wireless Cateye computer to track my mileage and speed. After my first 13 mile ride, I realized that I had to get padded shorts, a wicking shirt/jersey, gloves and a seat bag for my cell phone and wallet. I've put 105 miles on my 3 week old bike since then as those accessories have made my rides just so much more enjoyable. Go out and ride your new Defy and you'll be able to decide what you need as you go.
