Its almost intimidating like "how am I going to ride without GPS/heart rate monitor, cadence sensor, Assos bib shorts, etc., etc., etc?"
It does need proper pedals/shoes and these have to come first. All my road bikes are Speedplay. I need a shorter stem for fit. Then I'll probably try to wear out the tires through the fall and send a letter to Santa.

A cadence sensor certainly wouldn't hurt, especially on fixed, I know plenty of guys who ride with em, I'd have one myself but I spent the money of bars and a stem instead heheh
