Yes. I hadn't been on a bike for 25 years until yesterday. I pulled my old bike out of moth balls, cleaned it up, performed some routine maintenance, and lube, filled the tires and went. I don't have to contend with city traffic, but was a bit shaky at first, but no problems. My biggest discovery was how out of shape I am, especially my wind. Hills were a KILLER. I went out today again, after a few minor adjustments, and it was much better. I had a blast. Things will come together for you, just keep at it. You may want to take a drive with your bike in the car to a less populated location to get your bearings a bit.
