Hi Faith1st, welcome to the club, and to bicycling. I am sure you are gonna have a good time.
That is a really nice bike you have there! My girlfriend was getting jealous of my biking and weight loss, so I took her to the LBS and told her to pick out a bike with the salesperson. She picked the Trek 7100 (non wsd) and except for the frame style, it is just like yours! And she loves it!
Now, get out there and do some riding. Be safe.

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

Get a local map or mapping software and see if there is anyplace interesting near you. I bet there are all sorts of places withing 20mi that you did not know existed. Then decide if biking there is practical and safe.
