My name is Chris and I just bought a Trek 7100 to commute to work. It's 15 miles round trip. This is only the third day and already my legs feel like putty, but riding is so exhilarating! I live in Monroe, Louisiana and this town is NOT biker friendly at all. There are virtually no side walks and the idea of a bike trail is a long, long way off. Aside from the occasional hick shouting something witty from the passenger window of a dually, riding to work is one of the best decisions I've made in a while. (by the way, I don't have anything against hicks in dually trucks.)
