Eee I bought a bike

I've been putting it off while trying to budget, but then my friends got new bikes, and my newly transplanted boyfriend also got a bike, leaving me the ONLY PERSON WITHOUT A BIKE! Meaning I wouldn't be able to go on any fun bike outings until I, too, possessed one. After trying out the Novara Mia, I decided I really didn't like being THAT upright, and ended up getting Cannondale Quick Feminine 4--with fenders and a rack!
Today was the first day I commuted into work (around 2.9 miles), and it went pretty well. I did, however, have to walk my bike up what seems to be a fairly slight upwards incline. Hopefully my legs will get into better shape! I'm looking forward to some quantifiable amount of vigorous exercise being present in my day-to-day activities. And it'd be a shame not to take advantage of my work's facilities--a bike locker and a locker room with towels.
