Hello all,

I am a soon-to-be bike commuter, having handed in my 30 day notice on my parking pass at work. I only live a few miles from the office, so not even sure if I can consider myself a commuter, but I am looking forward to it. I have used my projected parking savings to rationalize buying a new bike, a Xootr Swift folder which I will be getting at the end of the month.

I have lurked on the threads for a while prior to joining, and must say the information has proven very useful in my decision on a bike as well as accessories.


Looking forward to digging deeper into the threads and learning lots!

Bill

Hi Bill, you may only live a few miles from the office, but you are still a commuter :) . Remember that when it's snowing outside, and icy with a wind chill factor that will strip the bones from your flesh!

Oh, I just meant to say that there is a Winter Cycling forum here :thumb: .

Welcome to BF, and feel free to PM me with any questions :) !
