I'm 9 weeks but I ride my bike all the time in my development and I think it's okay, maybe not later in pregnancy but for now I am going to enjoy the scenery around here. It's really therapeutic riding through the woods to the creek and there's a little fall where the river rushes into the creek my son loves to throw rocks in there.

I want to begin cycling but I don't know how to get started...HELP?

Q. I want to begin cycling to build up my legs and to lower my blood pressure. I don't know what kind of bike to buy or the equipment that I need. Please Help.


Answer
That's the right track - you definitely need a local bike shop that you trust. Don't be intimidated! People of all ages, shapes, colors and sizes can ride a bicycle.

The first thing you gotta do is tell yourself - you can do this. Tell yourself that a lot. You aren't going out to be Lance Armstrong so no need to add any extra pressure whatsoever.

You are simply going to ride a bike... something we've been doing since we were kids! It's going to be fun!

Now you need a bike. And really - almost any bike will do, but you might consider not jumping into the road cycling elite arena just yet. How about a nice comfortable commuter bike with straight handlebars and a padded seat. Then a helmet.

Guess what? YOU ARE READY!

OK, OK, I know, you probably want to know like brand, type, etc. And the bike shop suggestion is good because you want to test ride! You can't do that in a dept. store. And you really can't get more than a "toolshed" bike at a dept. store. You'd be surprised - bike shops are competitive with the big box stores -- and they have a service department so please start there!

Another thing to do - join a bike forum online! A lot of forums have sections just for beginners... also for women so you can connect with other folks.

So test ride, talk to people, be fearless and have fun - that's all you need to get started. Hey if you don't buy anything from the bike shop - that's OK because let's say you go out and get a used bike - well it's going to need some service right? So those guys better treat you right or you'll take your service/repair dollars elsewhere!!

Do you see? You have the power girl. This is cool. I am excited for you, so don't get all caught up in the details - just take it one step at a time: Get a bike, get a helmet and start riding.

You can invest in other stuff later - like baskets, lights, clothing etc. as you see fit!

OK good luck and see you in the bike lane!

Do a google search for Sheldon Brown's web page... he's no longer with us on this earth - but tons of resources for beginners and pros alike.
