I'm 51, SBSU, ( single but "shacked up") and have a 10 mile commute (one way). I haven't been commuting lately, ten miles in the snow with some of the worst drivers on the planet is not my idea of the best fun and I get bronchitis WAY easy, ( I'm recovering from my last ride).

I started riding, 30 yrs ago, after I blew up my knee, thanks to a motorcycle I couldn't sell fast enough and rugby. I couldn't run anymore to stay in shape for skiing and bikes were no longer "uncool" 'cause the bike boom was heavy...

Soon to be 52 - SAT DEC 29 2001

Ride 'cause you can
