Delivery date is Monday but would love to have it Friday. If you work, make sure someone can sign for it. If it is out for delivery on Monday, I am working from home that day to wait for it. ---

Got mine on Monday. Was out Monday night and last night. Been able to do 12mph for about 6-7 miles. Still working up to the 10 mark since I am going from a sedentary lifestyle to being active but enjoy it a lot more than running. ![http://i.imgur.com/cKcXv.jpg](http://i.imgur.com/cKcXv.jpg) ---

I like it because I can cover a lot more ground than running so its more enjoyable. I will be happy when I can go 10-15 miles easily and start using it to go a lot more places this summer. ---

> [@Spam16v](#): > > get some toe clips/straps, take advantage of being able to push and pull. I wouldn’t get clip-ons and shoes for this bike… The price tag would be the amount for the bike… Some pedals with “rat-cages” would be a cheap option to get the push pull… Also guys, if you’re hitting up some big miles I suggest carrying a small seat bag. -Tire lever -2 spare 700cc tubes -$5 -Quarters for air -C02 air pump OR -frame mount hand pump ---
