And thanks for all the replies so far.

Being in college, I'm so jealous of all of you who have longer commutes (= more biking time on better bikes = more fun, lol). I've done quite a bit of research on cross bikes as commuters [which I would love to own in the future] but atm I wouldn't have the money/time to invest in one.
