I use it as training and figure to ride a conservative 3000 miles for the 10 months that I ride out of the year. Congrats again.

Thanks so much! I really want this to be a lifestyle change for me. I’m about to buy my first home. I hope that my new location will still allow me to ride to work.

There are no trains where I live so I will have to check on bus schedules for part of my commute. And maybe I’ll end up still being 10-15 miles out from work.
Be safe,
W.J.
