    Well I had the fitting for my bike last night and I plan on taking it out for a short ride tomorrow. Surprisingly, it needed very few adjustments. The seat tube was raised a bit more. The stem was flipped over to change the angle on the handlebars. I have a new saddle which is a HUGE improvement in the right direction (Serfas TI-RS2 Stinger) but I'll know more so what I'm looking for with more riding. I also went with the base end Shimano SPD pedals for now. They are nerve wracking to say the least!

    ...I also learned my left leg is shorter than my right.

    I have a shorter leg, too. One of my shoes has shims on the bottom, the other doesn't. Funny how we lived all this time without even knowing it until we bought a bike.
    I sure hope you have a great time with your bike this weekend!

    I love the way it looks, but that saddle will be swapped out very very soon. YIKES I swear that thing fits IN BETWEEN my sit bones.

    (Oh I did receive my TE order very very quickly by the way!)
