Hello to all!
I hope to gain alot of knowledge here. I am new to cycling but very excited.
My husband got started about a year ago, so I have learned some from him too. I just got my new bike yesterday. Fitted and set for a new adventure. I got a Bianchi SL3 and it is sooo beautiful, satin flat sunshine yellow fading to orange. I enjoyed the ride more then I knew I would.
It did not take long to have my first lil 'crash from being new with the Shimano clipless pedals at a stop and pushing off incident. The bike was fine, but I bruised and scraped my knee a bit, but got back up and went some more. Only did a couple of miles yesterday. Today, I went out with husband and friend and did about 15 miles with a few hills to boot. Stayed at as moderate as possible, and did good concidering my butt was not callused enough.

I have been changing things in my life for the positive and besides getting into cycling, I have been eating (at a nearly) 100% live raw food for 30 plus days, and found more energy and an added benefit of losing 12 pouds with just changing this aspect alone. Learning the benefits of juicing, and soon to grow wheatgrass and juice it for optimal energy.
To see my raw food journals and another support site I joined: http://www.rawfoodtalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2346

Hope they work ok, let me know if you have problems.

I just ordered my first order of clothing with TE-teamestrogen, hoping that the delivery is quick, so anxious for my jersey, shorts and sport top, etc.

Looking forward to meeting and learning about everyone and our common desire for fun in cycling.
