wear a helmet, don't fall, practice clipping in and out, don't fall standing in place, don't ride with earbuds on, don;t buy a kit from this years tour de france. If you do any of what was mentioned people will point and laugh at you and possibly call you names.
The only thing I am going to miss right off the bat is my dual suspension. The things you need to sacrifice for speed.
