Thank you for your advice girls.

Knot, you are right! The only way to get over something is to do over and over again. I will do that this weekend, if the weather is not too hot.

NY Biker, Thanks for the advice on the brakes. Until now I have not touched my front brakes because I'm afraid of going over the handle bars. I will try that next time I go ride.

MyRubyE, I hate stopping too, at anything. I went to go ride yesterday and I started freaking out when I thought I had to come to a stop, when another rider was going through, since he had the right of way. What keywords are you using to search for the youtube videos?

abejita, Yes. I ride at whiterock. I just started riding, so I have been there only 3 times in that past few months, but my goal is to ride about 3 times a week. I would like to explore other areas, do you any suggestions?

higGnosis, I give you props for using the basket-style clips. I started out with those and I hated them. I just couldn't get my foot in, then again I probably should have tried it more than once.

Oakleaf, You are so right too. Looking back at the ride I did yesterday, I did look at the ground A LOT! I'll keep in mind not to next time.

BleeckerSt, lol! I think that is my major problem, I do wait to get out of the seat after I'm stopped, no wonder I topple over.

Thank you all again. I will keep your advice in mind when I go riding again.

Oh yeah, I try to remember to breathe too!!
