Don't worry, Eugene. We're almost there!

PS.
Just do the totalbike.com thing, test ride some bikes with drop handlebars, and we'll be there before you know it!
Also always remember this:
Sometimes we all get the jitters when riding in traffic. Things happen. Cars cut you off. They get too close. They slam on their brakes for some unexplained reason, just in front of you. They even unsuspectingly open their car doors in your pathway, just when you happen to be casually speeding along.
However, most things that happen don't translate into a casualty or fatality. There's just a bunch of close calls, rude behaviors, and ignorant actions. However, at the end of the day 99.9% of us make it back home, physically unscathed, but permanently psychologically affected, in a good way. We love it!
Most days are uneventful, but enjoyable nonetheless, because we're cycling!
