Newbie from Frederick
Hello Everyone,
I'm from Frederick, great area for biking. Been mountain biking for a few years, but want to switch to road biking. I know next to nothing about it, but now that i'm avg 30miles a week on my mnt. bike, on a road, i need to find out! Will probably be posting pics in another forum of bikes i'm considering buying, would love any/all feedback!
Thanks!
Gene

Welcome aboard 
Be sure to give people an idea of what your budget is for the new bike (tends to get quicker feedback).

Hi, Gene, Welcome to BF, good to have you join us here at BF. Do some reading in the Road Cycling Forum for ideas on where to start on your search for a road bike. I'd recommend starting by finding a good Local Bike Store (LBS in BF speak) and getting to know them so you know if they will work for you. Looking forward to seeing any pics.
