PS...new to the forum and absolutely love all the tips I've read so far!

Thanks!
How is your bike fit?
Until I adjusted my stem I was leaning too far forward and putting too much weight on my hands,
I still notice it some when I am getting tired and shifting my weight again back onto my hands instead of my butt and legs
