Purchased my first road bike to really start cross-training with road cycling during my running journey. I used to have a cheap old bike but I wanted something more performant.
Now I am simply falling in love with cycling… Can’t wait for my next day out with it ! Pushed me also to do some home training with Zwift !
I know it’s a entry level bike (Cannondale Synapse 3) and nowhere near expensive ones but I wanted something not too expensive to start and buy more expensive in a few years if I stick to it.
I only replaced the saddle, now I caught the virus and I am eying some wheelsets and tires…

Very nice bike – Congratulations to you and may you see many safe and memorable miles/kilometers on your beauty. I am also a Cannondale Synapse owner.
Quick question – are you planning on using this bike for Zwift? If so, you may want to look into buying an indoor rear tire for the bike when you use it on a trainer. Saves the wear and tear of your outdoor tire. Also, since most people sweat a ton, consider dropping a towel over the top tube and even the stem. Sweat is corrosive and can work its way onto the chain and in the bottom bracket, causing those to wear faster.
