    I missed this thread earlier, so I just read the whole thing, and it makes a really nice story to read all at once. I frowned at your troubles in the first post, but I was smiling at the last post.

    Roadtrip, you are doing really well.

    and the good news is, the more rides you get under your belt, even short rides... the more you will begin to be able to tell what the little problems are.

    Just like you noticed how your saddle suddenly felt too low, and you figured out that little problem. The more you ride the more you will sense where the problems are coming from. you may not be able to fix them all yourself, but you will start to have a sense of where the problem is so others can help you fix it.

    So great that you are ENJOYING your bike!

    Glad you got it sorted. And wow ... I don't think I've ever, ever met a headwind that I would describe as "fun." You must have gone and done it!

    Fun = Challenge (OK OK.. so perhaps a little warped that way.. LOL)

    Was part of the reason I stopped at 4 miles... I didn't want to face that wind again
