And Trek none the less. Nice Bike. Either read up on, or have someone explain to you the benefits of those toe clamps.

Yes. I'm starting with just a cage pedal first, 'cause I will need to save up for the shoes and clamp pedals. Plus I will need a learning curve, which I'm sure will require me putting my feet down often. LOL So we'll see when I graduate up to the clamps.

If I didn't work 47-ish miles away I would totally ride this to work.

And thanks everyone for the congrats. I'm also lucky to have one of the leading bike shops in my area literally around the corner from my house. So I will probably have her adjusted to as close to a perfect fit for me. Also gotta invest in the right tools. Anyone have any suggestions for a good tool set, and maintenance manual?
