Default Re: New to cycling

My body is stuffed (can hardly walk, can't run etc) and I ride a hybrid. That extra bit of comfort goes a long way. Can't do the very high speeds that the boy racers do but that doesn't worry me. I use a fairly high cadence so I'm not putting too much pressure on the joints and it seems to work pretty well.
Haven't tried a recumbent but a couple of blokes I know swear by them.
They have said they always have their lights on and a tall aerial with a streamer on just for the extra safety, being so low. They reckon they are very comfortable and feel safe.
