    Welcome! My best friend lives Lacey so I know there are some great places to ride up there.my best advice as a relative newbie is have fun and keep riding. You will get faster,better,wiser, the more you ride it will come. Check out bike shops for rides or websites for clubs if you don't want to ride alone. Enjoy the fall is a great time to ride
    I like bikes, sometimes more than my husband

    Learn how to fix a flat. You don't want to get stranded out there!!!

    There are tutorials on line, or you can ask the folks at your LBS to show you.

    Gloves are great!

    I heartily second that about the gloves. When young who wore gloves? Now I feel naked without my gloves and a little extra padding never hurts...
