On your first ride how do start easing yourself into riding do I just go a couple of miles or do I play it by ear? I am justing going to a local park that has a 2.5 mile loop with a couple of tiny hills. My cardio is pretty bad. Any advice you can give would be appreciated....oh by the way it is a Bad Boy Disc.
My first suggestion is relax. You are over thinking it. Just ride as far as you can, as long as you want to. Just don't get so tired that you shout "Never again!" and mean it.
