Hello all! Hope everyone is doing amazingly well.

I have been researching bicycles for around three months now. (#$%%^! this is tough!!!) I'm ready to take the plunge now but there are still a number of questions left to answer. Heading to a couple of LBS's tomorrow to try and come to a conclusion. In the mean time, I thought I should sign up and ask a few questions here as well,... so I'm heading to the proper posting area now. Follow me to the hybrid area?

Best wishes to all from Brooklyn, New York.
