That would be great. Just something basic to get me started...

Also shoes are something that you want to make sure you have a good fit in (sorta like ski boots) so buying them online may not yield the best results.
Thanks for the feedback.

I do most of my riding in the area around what is called 5 ponds (I think), which is to the right of 63 on the [urlhttp://www.whitememorialcc.org/map1large.html]map[/url], and the dirt roads that are behind it. I usually make a loop that includes at least a small section of the trails across 63 too.
Yeah, that's the area I hiked in. Lots of doubletrack in there IIRC. I'm sure you're in far better biking shape than I am....

Life's too short for warm up runs.
