  •  Hi Gike,
    Thanks for your message. I have knobby tires on the cross bike. I'm new to cycling and I want to learn the basics. I plan to do a lot more cycling in the next few months so want to start out right- learning how shift gears, city ride and knowing how and when to get that bike maintenance done. I'm also keen on doing some beginner group rides. I want someone who can ride beside me and let me know if I'm doing anything wrong or how I can improve. I look forward to the events!

  •  Hi Gike,
    Thanks for your email. It has been probably 8yrs (since I've been in GA) since I've used my Trek road bike which I have had serviced regularly up until a few yrs ago even unused. A pedal broke off about a year ago and I need to get that fixed. Need to buff the old gear usage up and learn how to fix a flat etc.
    Would also love to find a group of cyclists who enjoy leisurely biking?

  •  Thanks, Gike. I need to learn how to properly adjust the gears on my bike, and wanted to meet other cyclers with which to share this experience.

  •  Hi Gike, thanks for the welcome. I'm just starting out as a bike rider - the last time I rode a bike was around 9th grade, 10 years ago. So I guess my challenge would be learning how to take care of my bike, safety riding in Atlanta, and just where all the great places to ride are!
