Now that I'm cleaned up a bit, my knees don't look bad at all! It was a beautiful ride! Thanks for hanging back with me. I stopped by and saw Steve Tyree on my way home and he reinforced all the lessons you guys gave me on shifting. Thankls for putting this one together for us.

No problem at all Valerie....glad to help. These things will eventually become second nature as you get more experience. Hang in there and don't get frustrated.
