I finally got a job!!
After 9-1/2 months of being unemployed, discriminated against because I'm 59 (no proof though), and having lots of free time to ride (I'm really going to miss that :cry: ) I now have to join the rest of you doing the 8am-5pm grind.
Actually I don't think it will be that unpleasant ;) .
There have been a number of BF members who have given me hope and encouragement during these past months and I'd like to thank them for their kind words and support. :beer:
For those of you who are familiar with Atlanta, I'll be working at Scottish Rite Children's Medical Center (http://www.choa.org). You can read my profile to see what I'll be doing.
The hospital is about 11+ miles (18 km) from home so I'm hoping I can find a good commute route. And Pete, the Medical Center Marta station is less than two blocks away, so I can include public transportation at times.
And after the paychecks start coming in, I'll be checking out new bikes - maybe a new commuter (not sure) and maybe another bike to keep my Litespeed company. :)
I'll keep you posted and ask for opinions once I decide what bike(s) I'm looking at.
