I would be in for one!

I am new to the cycling world. I have a Cannodale Optimo built for Cyclocross because I could not make up my mind if I wanted to mtn bike or road bike. It has not seen any mountains yet. I also own a mtn bike, but its about 7 years old...so I didn't want to rely on it. I was really wanting to do lots of miles on the road and the mtn bike is not good enough IMO for the road even for short distances (15 miles).

My longest ride so far is 18 miles. And my butt was hurting.....and I dont mean my body...I mean my butt. It kills me to think how the ironman people or the Tour De France people can sit on a bike for 150 miles! WOW. Of course they can probably cover 150 by the time I can cover 15...I am SLOW!
