Looking good there jb. Did you have the cycling gear already? Look pretty well kitted out so far. You've more kit than I have yet! Unusual front light positioning, looks a bit different which is good. How did you get on with the pedals and toe clips? Any struggling to get your toes back on the pedals after having to stop? 18.5 miles is good going for a first outing, especially at this time of year. Looks decent weather you were having wjen the pics were taken. Hope you enjoy your bike as much as I intend enjoying mine come the better weather.

Thanks RL. I do a lot of running so I just used that gear for now. The pants are not padded and the length of the jacket and top are not long at the back like bike gear but it did the job fine. Currently looking at getting some padded pants though.
I put the front light on top at first but then thought it looked better underneath. It's out of the way but still easy to get to.
No problem with the peddles...... yet!
It was last Sunday morning I went out and the weather was fine. Much better than its been since anyway! Hope to get out again this saturday morning.

Hi, not long had mine , managed seven miles so far but then its been a long time out of the saddle and its my first road bike, bit of a contrast to my old atb Raliegh. Pedals are fun ! find myself with one foot in and one out for a good few yards , embarrassing but no doubt I`ll get used to it. Put cateye lights on mine just to be seen with as not commuting with it......yet ! ,All the best from a newbie !.
