I thought I would let you all know where I am in my venture to try cross. I decided that with all that was suggested that my road bike wouldn't work, so I purchased a Bianchi San Jose. I was all excited to give it a try and had visions of how much fun I was going to have. Well I went to my first clinic and OMG, all this mounting and dismounting stuff is hard and I started to feel like a total loser. Currently I am still pretty scared to try to dismount and remount but I am trying to concur my fears. I just hate how I am so afraid to try new things yet other people just get out there and do it. Some day I am going to be as good as I am in my dreams! Practice makes perfect (or in my case, just better than I am now)!
Oh, I forgot to mention that the bike I got is a single speed. I thought it was a great idea because of the lower cost and all but dang I don't know if I am a strong enough rider to ride single speed. Anyone's thoughts on single spead?
