Subject: Road Bike Needed for 5'9 Female
I just completed my first sprint triathlon on a borrowed bike.  Although I was able to finish the race (without any training), I am now motivated to actually train and truly compete in a triathlon.  With that in mind, I am looking to purchase a road bike.  I have no idea what kind of bike I need only that I am 5'9" and 31 years old.  Any ideas about the size of bike I need, places I can find a bike for a reasonable price, etc. would be much appreciated!  Thanks again!!

Alot depends on your budget. I'd check out local bike shops and look for one that will take the time to fit you properly and has brands you like. If you knew what size you could order one online but it is best to be fit.
