I did it completely backwards. I just jumped in and raced, which was good and bad. Now I am trying to become competitive.

I know that it wasn't on the list but I would recommend Strava. I have used it with a smart phone and then later I bought a Garmin Edge and I am absolutely in love with the site and the program. It helps keep me motivated to see what my friends are doing and how intense they are riding.

wow!! That is an incredible transformation!

Not stopping is the key to success I have been at this for three years and refuse to stop.

I love the Cross Check!!! I have a green one!

Those are pretty sweet, I am curious how they'll work out. I also had a 7500fx and wanted to get more of a road bike feel so I bought a vintage steel road bike and now I am addicted to collecting them. I wish that I would have went in your direction.
