Got my new bike today!!!!!!!

I got a Giant Rapid 2. This is a decent entry level bike. It's much lighter than the MTB I had before. It's also alot faster. I am a noob but managed 15 mph easy and hit 21mph a few times. I weigh 210 so I slow the bike down a lot. I'm sure after losing a few pounds I can get it to go quicker. The bike is very comfy and the seat only slightly rapes you. I'll be swapping pedals in a few weaks and getting ergo grips and shoes. When I asked the guy to put on a kick stand he pulled me to the side and told me I was nuts! So he gave me a quick lesson on how to lean the bike and save me from ridicule. I just rode it 5 miles and did in 1/3 rd the time it used to on my MTB. WIN!!!

Nice. Very nice.
The newer pedals will really help, you can get much more power to the crank with toe clips or funky clip shoes.
What, no disc brakes? Lol. do they even put discs on road bikes?
Not sure if my wife is gonne get a new bike now, she's thinking she may get her MTB overhauled. How much lighter is it?

My new bike weighs 20 lbs, my old bike was 15 lbs more LOL. I don't think they put disc brakes on road bikes. I gotta remove the refectors. That might save me 0.00036 lbs!

Score!

Next step:
- Front shocks. Can't pwn without those
- Clipless pedals to double your power
- Find a good, long trail near you and hit it hard every few days and you'll be solid after a while.
