Hello from the L.A. area

Hi everyone!

Another newb here! Just wanting to introduce myself. I'm Sami and I live in the L.A. area. I am totally new to biking, just bought one yesterday. I got a Trek 7.2 FX womens bike. It's so pretty. It's my first "real" bike! :love: Anyone have any experience with these? Today will be my first day commuting to work by bike. I'm excited and a little nervous. Wish me luck. :thumb:

Ride Slow until you Get stronger.

How far is your commute?

Good Luck

Thanks 10 wheels! I'll be commuting 5 miles each way. And thanks for the advice, I plan to leave super early this morning so I can take it slow and enjoy the ride. :-)

You have a nice bike.
I rode in LA last summer. I enjoyed the rides.
Just have fun.....

I'm glad you enjoyed the L.A. rides. I'm a little nervous about L.A. drivers! Hopefully I can find some good routes that aren't too trafficky. (Is that a word? lol)

You may get some horn honks, but that is totally normal for commuters.
