New to Cycling

[cakenstein]

Hi everyone!

I'm just getting into cycling and am really enjoying it! I've been lurking TE for about a week and like what I see, so it seemed time I introduced myself! I've ridden casually on a '76 Raleigh Grand Prix that I found at a yard sale for several years, but it was always a little too big and a little too heavy for me. I recently purchased a Trek 1.1, and I love it! It's been about two weeks on the new bike, and I can already feel the difference. At the moment I'm riding for fitness and muscle building, but I'd really like to get into some light endurance/racing in the future.

Anyway, you all seem pretty knowledgeable and having a resource like this makes everything about cycling even more awesome!
