So, I’ve been trying out my new bike this week… luckily, my sore butt issue is being resolved through my use of padded bike shorts.  But, now I have a new dilemma… They make my already large booty look bigger through the addition of a big ol’ lump where the padding is, LOL… whatever.

More importantly, I’m learning to ride it slowly but surely.  I didn’t realize how different it would feel from riding a regular cruiser.  I’m taking short 6-7 mile rides around my neighborhood until I get comfortable riding it then plan on going further along the same ocean-side route as my Saturday long runs.

I already have several friends ready and waiting to ride with me!!  🙂  Can’t wait!
