my first bike.... EVER

[Catrin]

Attachment 10538

Here is my new steed, and the very first one. It is a Trek 7.6 FX WSD. With some fear, I've learned how to take the front wheel off so I can transport it in my trunk. Thankfully the bike is quite light, as I need to turn it upside down to do so It is much more stable that way though.

Tomorrow I hope to be able to practice a little in my apartment complex before heading to my spinning class. I am trying to master the Fine Art of NOT Falling Over more than necessary...

I asked them to add a kick-stand and to remove those floppy toe straps that were REALLY getting in my way. I hope to go clipless by early June, but time will tell. Thankfully I am already using them in spinning class, so that should help.
