Newb with a new ride!
Hi all! I'm new to the boards, and to cycling for that matter. I've been riding an old Giant Rincon for the past month or so while trying to decide if I'm going to jump in full force into the cycling world.
Well, I just went down to my LBS last night and purchased an 06 Felt f75 and I couldn't be more happy with it!
Looking forward to learning from some of the veterans on the board and becoming a more experienced rider.

I got out for a ride yesterday afternoon and I'm LOVIN this bike! Definitely a lot better riding that than that old Giant Rincon. I even took on some hills with greater speed and ease on the new ride that posed a challenge on the old bike.
I'll snap some pics soon.
Can't wait until the end of the work day so I can get out there again!

Nice ride! and you better have some decent riding gear. Don't be the guy spending all sorts of cash on a roadie and then riding in stretched out crew socks, wearing some worn padless spandex shorts and a T-shirt. He showed up to my group ride a few weeks ago with a carbon Trek and a sport jacket because it was cold.
