Hello everyone, My name is Bobby I'm 20 and I just decided to start biking to help lose weight and get into shape along with sight seeing and exploring.
Just picked up a 2012 Trek 3700 and added a trip meter, cage/bottle, kickstand, and a saddle bag and lights (not pictured)
I'm pretty overweight at about 280lbs at about 5'11" tall
I'm actually having issues I'm more out of weight than I thought I live on a flat gravel road and I can't seem to make it a 1/4 mile without running out of breath and feeling Like I've ran a mile.. any tips for a noobie that can't seem to get very far out of the driveway? I shift to an easier gear like I've read about but maybe I'm making it too easy for myself and overworking it?
