    Congratulations! Hope you really enjoy it!

    I know what you mean about the pedals though. My first mtb came with SPD clipless pedals and I was a bit scared to be clipped in on my first ride off the road. So I left those little platform things they clip into them on there for the first ride. But it's funny, after the first few minutes I knew that I had to be clipped in - all those years of being clipped in on a roadie meant I felt completely insecure NOT clipped in! So I just loosened off the pedals as far as they would go, clipped in and prepared for the gumby stacks! Once you've been clipped in for so long, you're clipped in for life I'm afraid!

    Yeah, I felt like my feet were wanting to fly all over the place and just couldn't get the 'umph' to go! Hopefully there will be some in stock this weekend, otherwise it'll be another week to wait, but still, I plan on hittin' a trail or two this weekend to try it out!

    I am a huge fan of my Time Atac XL pedals. They are the women's version of the Time Atac XS. DH rides the XS and is also a big fan. Very easy engagement and disengagement.
