My First Ride
http://historian2wheels.blogspot.com...-for-2007.html
Yes, my first scheduled "ride" is for an event called "Girls With Gears." "April 22 - Girls with Gears. Yes, I am riding in a "woman's cycling event." Bikesport, one of the ride organizers, assures me that I am welcome to ride, despite my Y chromosome. Money raised supports research on heart disease in women." http://historian2wheels.blogspot.com...ith-gears.html Neil 385/252/200 |

Beverly So Beverly, and Queen, any comments on my riding plans for 2007? Your schedule sounds like a lot of fun. I especially like the street skills course. This will come in handy in your location. I rode several of the roads in Philly on the Livestrong ride and they have wonderful bike lanes. The most important thing is to just keep adding miles, work on those hills and enjoy it. The weather has finally turned decent here. I was able to get in a couple short rides yesterday and again today. We're doing the regular Sunday morning breakfast ride tomorrow and our Monday night ride along the river trail. Wow! Biking season is finally here Beverly |

Here's the link to the report: http://historian2wheels.blogspot.com...rch-10-200...- I loved the ride report! One suggestion just in case you don't already know it. When leaning into turns be sure the inside pedal is up and the outside pedal is down. This will prevent you from catching the pedal on the ground and also helps with balance at higher speeds. This isn't as important at lower speeds as it is at higher speeds but it's something you want to learn to do automatically. Have fun! The Sunday morning breakfast ride was wonderful. Beverly |
