Hello from Idaho
I have lived in the Boise area for the past thirty years and came originally from Phoenix, AZ. I have been riding bikes for over 35-years and spend most of my time on commuting, touring and mountain bikes. I ride a Giant XTC, Kona Smoke 2.9 and Specialized Hybrid bikes.
Bicycling charges my batteries and allows me to take in the world at a slower pace besides being good for the environment.
I look forward to getting to know you through Bike Forums.
Ride safe.

I'm in Boise as well. I have just really started biking. How do you find Boise as a biking town? I've lived here my whole life, but I usually see it from a car and while it seems fairly safe for bikers, I'm sure it's completely different on the other side (which I am slowly discovering).

Riding in Boise
Boise claims to be biker friendly. However, I find that most traffic is O.K. But in areas with little roadway for a cyclist some don't like sharing the road. With the severeal recent bicycle accidents and deaths make sure you are visible. Especially during these winter overcast days or take the Greenbelt.
