About me:: I haven't been on a bike since I was 14--I got in a nasty wreck and never got back on once I was able. I'm tired of letting fear keep me from something I used to love, so I signed up for a 200-mile ride in July and a 100-mile ride in August. I'll be raising money for AIDS-related charities and riding in memory of my brother, who died in 2006.

It's time to leave the SPIN studio and actually get on a bike. Aside from being a little bit afraid (I will get over that), I don't know ANYTHING about bikes or riding in the city (or in the country, for that matter). Hopefully that will change soon. I'm going to buy my first bike in 25 years this weekend. Oh, and I'm going to ride it too.
