New guy

Hi all. Just joined. A little about me, live in upstate NY, ride a Mongoose Rockadile for commuting 22miles round trip. Love all the info here. Sorta stumbled in here, don't know how I never found it before.

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

I'm in Coxsackie. not a year rounder, but thinking about it. My route is on a 55mph road at 3pm and then at 11pm, and it can be interesting in good weather. I've been to the commuting forum, already becoming a regular

No doubt !

How far a distance do you ride for your commute?

Not too bad, unless the whole trip is on that one street.
