I have just fixed up an old bike and just got into cycling. I don't really where to start in regards to training. I am in fairly good shape, I used to play soccer and still run and lift on a fairly regualar basis.

For starters, just get out and ride. Get used to the bike, explore and enjoy different routes and have fun. When you want some more structure try some longer (20-30 minute) efforts that make you breathe deeply but don't completely kill you. Do that on some days and just enjoy being on the bike other days and you're off to a good start.
