New Road Biker Here
Hi all,
My name is John I hail from Lafayette IN and have recently started cycling. Until now I had been borrowing a Trek 5200 OCLV from a buddy to ride, but now I own my own bike a 2008 Redline F750. I realize it is a step down from what I was using but it is cool to have my own ride, and this seems like a nice entry level road bike that I am comfortable riding. I have had it for about 4 days now and have put pretty close to 80 miles on it. Clipless pedals and Sidi's on the way from Nashbar. Scheduled to arrive tomorrow.

Ride brother, just ride. (Well, go to work too so you can buy cool bike clothes and overpriced water bottles)

Wow, you're not far away. I just joined the site today and am starting to get into cycling myself. I'm currently living in West Lafayette, IN. I can't wait to hit the roads and start riding!
