Hello,
I am new to the art of cycling. Needs some advice on what is a good starting road bike. I have a discount store mountain bike , but I am looking to upgrade and start on riding the road. Any good brands and places to purchase would be a hugh help. Looking at spending 700-1300 on the bike and it's parts. Also good brand of shoes. I love this forum and hopefully will be able to excite new women cyclist to the sport. Thank you.
