thanks for all the comments, constructive, and not...
i plan to just man up and do it, i did 50 miles last year on a FS MTB, how much harder can this be?
i have done a test run around the block and nothing has fallen off. yet.
Not harder at all because this time you'll be cycling a bike rather than a pogo stick ;)
