Unfortunately I have no cycling supporters. In fact, I only know one other person who rides. She's a co-worker, but I don't know her very well. It makes it tough because I don't have anyone to ask to show me how to do mechanical things.

My friends know that I'm trying to lose weight, but they're indifferent. They think it's good that I exercise, but they're not going to start asking me how many miles I rode or something.
