I'm riding my dad's bike (he died 4 years ago), my son and I share it. I think you should shift to a lower gear when going up hills. At least that's what I have sorta figured out. I too need to get a helmet.

Completely malnourished and was just the saddest thing I've ever seen. At first she called a local shelter and they wanted to immediately put him down because of how old he was. She was like no, I'd like to adopt him. So, against their better judgement they fixed the dog all up and allowed her to adopt him.

That reallllly made the difference with my bike and how well I felt while riding! There's lots of resources out there on The Internets that can explain proper seat height (here is a good one: http://www.jimlangley.net/crank/bikefit.html). <br /><br />Most importantly, ENJOY!Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16672717457735479066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-18166568384671577122011-06-29T21:04:11.586-04:002011-06-29T21:04:11.586-04:00I'm catching up on your posts right now, but y...I'm catching up on your posts right now, but yay for the bike!!
