19 years old, 6' and 225lbs. Not healthy. I picked up an old Giant Rincon last spring and rode it around, but really wanted a roadbike. (The Rincon was $40 and fit, so it was hard to pass up.) Spent the summer working, found the time a month ago and went to the bike shop. Fitted for a 54cm (Trek sizes) frame, but they had no 1000s in, which was all that was in my price range. I'd ridden a 1200 and was hooked. Two weeks later, they had the 2006 Trek 1000 in in my size and I didn't waste a minute in getting there. Two weeks from then is now and I love it. I don't get as much time to ride it as I would like, as the weather's nuts here. No mileage goal this year, but I would love to break 100.
Overall goal: Health, weight-loss. Short-term: Sprint-length triathalon in spring and a 9 mile mountain biking portion of the Ski-To-Sea in spring as well.
