Newbie Buys his Bike , Finally!!!
Well, I pulled the Trigger. Bought a Cannondale, Adventure 1, Comfort Bike with 700X38 Tires. Has been over 40 years since last bike and this looked like a perfect way to start. I am ver excited and expect delivery in about a week. Thanks to all that contribute to this forum. I look forward to riding and hopefully losing some weight and inches.

Congrats on the bike.
Stop by the Southeast Regional subforum and say hello to the locals.
Also stop by the 50+ forum and say hello to the other old farts. I'm one of them. I'm 68.

Congrats on taking the big step. I really wanted a Cannondale Snapse, but it just didn't fit. Hope you're enjoying year round riding down there

Another welcome to you, as Ron said be sure to check in at the 50 forum. I am one of the youngsters at 56, that they put up with, the SE regional forum is a good place to get connected with others for rides and such. What part of Florida are you in now? I'm up in the NW corner, Pensacola, great riding state wide.
