First ride
The first ride was, according to the bike's computer, exactly 1 mile. (I've got to sort that out in kilometres.) I did that in about 6 minutes, so I was averaging 10 miles per hour. I rode through light traffic, over a small hill (actually a bridge over railway tracks) from the shop to my home. The only problem, I have to admit, was getting on the bike. That will take some getting used to. But the ride is fast and pleasant.
