Drivers Hating Cyclist on Twitter Gratitude. “Drivers: You sit behind the wheel of the most advanced personal transport device in the history of the world. All you need to do is apply slight pressure to a pedal with your foot and you are instantly propelled forward at an incredible rate of speed.

Clipping in to the 105 pedals is pretty easy, although I did fall off at a stop light on the first ride! Shorts are great and highly recommended! ...
