Before I rode the first rides, I watched this instruction video.  Extremely helpful!

First Bike Rides

Last week my bike arrived!  On Tuesday and Wednesday I was able to take it out with my trusty instructor/boyfriend.  Both days we rode about 6 miles on the Cedar River Trail in Renton.  We even rode a tiny bit in gravel, grass, and dirt.  I felt a little uneasy at first, but by the time we got the bike adjusted, it felt very comfortable.   After only a few minor “hick-ups” my nerves have subsisted with the idea of Moab, but I am a long ways from ready to go.  Hey, at least now I know how to put on and remove the bike tires.

Next experience: Cowiche Conservatory in Yakima.
