Seems like there's a lot of nice folks here. You guys are making it easier on my insecurities (many of which mirror Pub's.)
Do it dude. Best time to start is NOW. Warm weather makes starting the bike easier (even better if you live near a beach). For me, once I got started it carried over to colder weather and I bought a Norditrak ski machine to use in the winter. Once you see results (and they can be dramatic if you really try on the bike) you get motivated to carry on. Good Luck.
