New Bike & First 20 Miles

Last night I picked up my bike!
at the Boise Bike Swap. It's a KHS steel-frame with an array of new components.
Check it out:

After attaching the pedals, and picking up a pair of running/cycling tights I geared up with all my other equipment and hit the pavement! Put in 20 miles today, including a climb up the LuckyPeak Dam! (which was easier than I thought it was going to be)
I'll continue to improve the bike also, adding a new sleek seat, re-grip the handlebars (blaze orange), new tires, and adding Tri-aero bars! Are all in the plan.
I'm amped to hit the real road today, but know there needs to be alot more miles put in and I need to build more confidence in my riding and endurance for the 70.3!!!
But for today, it was good.
