cycling

so i took richard's bike out today. richard... you are too tall. how am i supposed to ride if my legs cant touch the ground. it makes me sad. i am asking for a bike for my birthday. i wanna ride. i like it.. but i dont have a good bike. oh and i think i am realizing the need for bike shorts. that seat is not the most comfortable thing. on my dyno... i usually stood the whole time... so i really didnt see the need. but i definitely can tell now. if anyone has a good idea for a bike let me know
