Brand New Rider
Posted: Sun Jan 23, 2011 6:56 pm
This is my first post on here, and was looking for a little bit of help.
I have a boyfriend who has done cycling for at least a year and a half, and I have decided to start.
I don't know much at all about riding, so any tips or hints would be great.
I haven't gotten a bike yet, as i wasn't sure what to start off with. If i was to start racing, being a 15 year old, I would race under first year 17s(?), and i was wondering about the rules of the gearing of bikes for this age (as i have heard you have to have the right gearing or you can't race).
Any hints or tips would be great.
Yours appreciated.
