Good idea to hold off on the aero bars for a while (at least). If you decide to start riding with a bike club (which I recommend to get comfortable riding with people and improving your skills), you may not be allowed to use aero bars in group rides. This is for a good reason, as aero bars can be dangerous in a crash. Also, with arms on the aero bars, it's harder to control the bike, and that's no good with a group of people going 15+ mph.
