Reply #11: I just noticed you're in Indiana.

I'm a Hoosier by birth, born in Rochester in Fulton County. When I was just a couple of months old, we moved to Kalamazoo and then Battle Creek, but at ten, we moved to Indianapolis, where I lived for nearly six years until moving to Texas. If you're riding up hills, does that mean you live in Southern Indiana? Though Northern Indiana seems a lot more rolling now that I've seen the Texas Panhandle! ;)

I have a speedometer on order that hopefully also measures RPMs so I can get a feel for it. I'll also check into the peddle contraints as I have experienced the feeling that my feet are going to fly off!

Speaking of Lance, he's a hometown boy (I live just outside of Austin and work in Austin. Maybe Lance and I can train together one of these days. :D
