Hi from IU

Hi guys!

I'm a student at IU looking to get into cycling while my hip heals from a running injury!

I look forward to learning from these forums!

Welcome to Bike Forums. Where is IU? For help with picking a bike, ask in the General cycling Discussion or the appropriate forum for the type of bike and riding you're interested in.
Hope the hip heals quickly.

Cycling is so much more gentler on the knees, hips and in general because of the low impact and circular motions. Hoping that you will find it just as rewarding as running and that you stick to it beyond recovery.

Welcome to Bike Forums and thank you for joining!
