Greetings from Chi-town

Hello all - I am new to cycling....Just getting my feet wet. I started biking this year. I bought a cheap bike to see how consistent I'd be and I've been cycling pretty good. I did 60 mile ride this past sunday. I am now looking to updated equipment.

I want a Scott bike. Love the look of the Speedster 10.

Hope I can learn a lot from the people here.

Welcome Rosco920, a lot of good info and advice available here. I am originally from Rockford, actually Loves Park, and at one time, lived in Roscoe, IL. One of my biggest sports thrills, 10 years old in '63, was getting Ernie Banks autograph at Wrigley. I still remember running back to the seats where my Dad, his friends, and my brothers were sitting. Same time, I missed Billy Williams by one person, he went to the batting cage. Ride on, be safe.
