To quote Mr.T - "pain"
I'd do no more than 20 (fairly flat) miles on a first ride. You're probably plenty fit - but bikes are different than running. Increase as you feel comfortable. You might rub your naughty bits with a good cream (nozxema) before hand, for some lubrication - and I assume you have property biking shorts with a chamois? You need that. I like a mirror on my helmet. Eventually you'll need clipless shoes & pedals (which ironically do have clips). And watch out for cars.

I've always preferred the Bike Peddler Take A Look Cycling Eyeglass Mirror:

The compact version is very unobtrusive when attached to eyewear but you would need the original version and a helmet adapter kit for use attached to a helmet.

Unfortunately not. The only way I'd know if anything passed me is by the pressure of object racing through which puts pressure on my side but then it'd be too late at that point to do anything. When I'm riding, all I feel are three things: the vibration of the handlebar and the ride, the wind noise that pass over my ears (yes, I can hear the wind but I cannot hear at frequencies that normal hearing would), and wind pressure on my body as I speed up / down. The pavement is simply not flexible enough nor is a bicycle's tires conductive enough to alert me ahead of time. That's why I have a mirror. The one I use and like very much is called "Take A Look" (https://www.amazon.com/Bike-Peddler-Cycling-Eyeglass-Mirror/dp/B001VTQNVO).

Get a helmet mirror, I like this one a lot. It lets you keep an eye on what's going on behind you, instead of just looking once when you need to change lanes or whatever. Much safer.

I use a "Take a Look" helmet mirror (well I put it on my shades), it's perfect.

No shaking around like my old one did, wider so I can see much more of what's going on behind me with ease. I can't ride comfortably without them, I hate not knowing what's developing behind me constantly.

Having gone through at least five different mirror styles, I highly recommend the eyeglass/helmet mounted Take a Look by Bike Peddler. I've had one mounted to my visor for nearly ten years now. Made in the USA!

Second the mirror, highly recommend this one: http://www.amazon.com/Bike-Peddler-Cycling-Eyeglass-Mirror/dp/B001VTQNVO I got it for $16 at my LBS, I've had it a week now and wonder how I got along without one.

u/wickedcold · 1 pointr/bicycling

Trying to ride even a block without this thing feels like riding with my eyes closed. I don't know how you "anti-mirror" people ride like that.

u/zorkmids · 1 pointr/bicycling

If he needs a mirror, the Take-a-look is excellent.

u/c0de_ · 1 pointr/bicycling

You need one of those, it mounts directly on your glasses so you can move it to a spot where it's not blurred out by your peripheral vision.

I have one, and it works great. But I don't have bad vision.. so YMMV

u/meaniereddit · 1 pointr/bicycling

This is the best one I have seen in terms of construction and flexibility. bonus for cheezy packaging

Oh, it sure is their responsibility. I just don't trust them.

I don't trust those in the back either.

RE: the mirror question. I've tried them all. This is the best IMHO:
