About three weeks ago I bought a road bike of this variety. This was done after lengthy considerations and even lengthier considerations have followed. See, it's not enough to get a bike. You need a bike computer (to keep track of your speed, distance, average speed, total distance covered etc. etc.), padded shorts (to retain the functionality of your nether regions), a bike jersey with pockets on the back (so you don't have to carry your house keys stuffed into your padded shorts), clipless pedals, shoes to go with the clipless pedals, biking gloves and even biking socks! Getting all this stuff, being an avid online shopper, has proven strenuous. Too small, too large, out of stock and not bothering to let us know, attitude from staff who think they're doing you a favor allowing you to buy their overpriced-but-available stuff from them... úff.
And in spite of all this, I find myself having covered a lot of ground on my new bike (in my sneakers and Shan´s old crash shorts) and slowly, walking up that monstrous hill on the way to school in the mornings is getting easier.
