Hello everyone. I figured I would introduce myself. I've looked around a bit and couldn't help but notice what an incredible resource you have here. I am new to cycling. I've had my bike for a whole 2 1/2 weeks! On Sept 28th I rode a 50 in the Waco Wild West 100, finishing in 3 hours 27 minutes. I have an entry level ride that I have learned to trust in a short period of time. My initial goal was to enter the Hotter N Hell in Wichita Falls Texas in 2014, but couldn't wait. I have a Vilano Shadow that I got a great deal on. I look forward to learning, and becoming more comfortable with cycling as a hobby.
