I have new road bike. So far I've ridden it less then 50 miles. (I have to work very slowy to get my "oomph" due a bad accident on my hyrbrid April 14)

How do I get comfortable enough to use the rams? (I think that is what the curved part of the bars are called.) I am very apprehensive about moving my hands to them. I don't want to fall. Can anyone advise or give me some hints?
