Hello, bikeforums - I am a new rider from panama city, FL area -- I am to start a new job soon and hope to be able to commute full-time. I am saving my pennies to get better bike as my current ride is a wally-world roadmaster (freebie from a friend). I love riding! Thanks to this forum I feel it is not too late to start riding, I have been really trying to get healthy since 4 yrs ago the doctor said early stages of emphysema. I quit smoking, eat better and excercise. Now the bike riding I want to become more of my lifestyle not just hobby. Thanks for letting me share.
