Hello Fitness World!
This summer, I acquired an adorable Red Trek Hybrid bike. I love her. My fellow biking friend talked me into the 'bike MS' ride called Pedal to the Point that is a 150 (175 if you do the extra 25 miles the first day) mile ride, a fundraiser for MS.
I would really enjoy to add a couple friends to my list that are also bikers, as I would like some additional support in an area that is so foreign to me. Any training tips, favorite riding gear and all that would also be awesome to learn.
Cheers.

Wear a helmet, don't stop pedaling or you won't finish, watch out for squirrels, get a comfortable seat. Enjoy and good luck is all the real advice I can give.0
