Hello from Texas
I've been riding since the early 90's and currently commute 24 miles to work and 6 miles back home (the rest is on the train) about 2x a week. I try to get a group ride in on the weekend or ride the tandem with my wife.
My commuting bike is a Specialized Sirrus, modified with drop bars and STI. My road bike is a mid-90's Bianchi frame with a Look carbon fork, Rolf Vector Pro wheels and SRAM red group set.
See y'all on the road!
