 40 |  Subject: Clipless Pedals.Well, I finally took my bike out for a ride. It was awesome, so much different than riding a mountain bike. However I was warned by a co-worker that nearly everyone bails on their first ride with clipless pedals. The first ride was short just a 5km ride and I made it home without crashing it felt like a super star! Which takes us to yesterday - ride number two. Well, ride number two didn't go quite as well. About 8km in I ended up like a turtle at a fairly busy intersection. Thankfully the only injury was to my pride. Oh well, here is hoping ride number three goes a little better! |

The next was DON'T SCRATCH THE BIKE!! I thankfully I am a fairly soft guy, so when the bike landed on my there were no scratches or damage. (I wasn't kidding about the turtle - I didn't even let go of the bars...haha) |
