I appreciate you guys helping to alleviate my concerns. I definitely know that I tend to over analyze. I'm 52 years old though and who knows how many more good years. I'm just trying to enjoy life. I likely don't yet have the skill set to appreciate such a nice bike but I'm doing all I can to progress as a cyclist and doing longer rides on a more road worthy bike is the next step in my cycling evolution.
BTW I weigh 175 if that matters.
