    Thanks Red Rock
    Yes, I tried to ride my old Vitus and it was terrible. I have been riding a mountain Bike around town, but it's not the same.
    The new technology really does make a difference!! I need all the advantage I can get.

    That is a beautiful Bianchi. I've been riding a Bianchi for about three years now and just love mine. I hope you have many happy and safe miles together.

    What a beauty! I think cadence is somewhat personal. My cadence is not working, but I know I will get very different feeling and result from staying where my husband rides. And Lance Armstrong's was much different than Jan Ullrich. You get the idea. I think 80-90 is where my husband thinks mine should be.

    Thanks to everyone for checking in on my new ride.

    Aggie, I hold my cadence over 60, average is 69, feel pretty comfortable in that range for now. I'll try to boost to 70, but 90 no way unless its a downhill
    I'll search the forum for cadence threads... would be interesting to know what others try for, or feel it doesn't matter.

    I'll see you on the roads, and be lurking here to get your valuable insights.
