I read this post before heading out today and it was very helpful.

Big relief to hear this.
All the explanations on this is really appreciated, thank you all.
Today what I found seems to match up to what has been said here and it is getting a bit easier now to figure out where I'm supposed to be. I'm still deciphering/studying what has been posted since some of this terminology is new to me, please bear with me.
Something else I found was that if I changed gear on the rear and got some "crunching?" type noise that adjusting the front gear a bit seemed to bring it back to quiet. Am I doing this right?
