Thank you all for your warm (dare I say "hawt"?) welcome! I will check out the car-free, commuter, and "foo" forums.
Tom: I'm a diabetic too! The other kind, though--my pancreas just stopped making insulin when I was 11. Maybe someday I'll do the Tour de Cure as well!
Air: I'm a singer/songwriter. I play guitar and I'm just starting to sorta teach myself piano because I inherited someone's rather nice keyboard and have been hearing this countermelody for one of my songs in my head for some time...you know how it is. Tuba and brass! You're a real musician! Way cool.
Siu Blue Wind: I say SF Bay Area because most people aren't that familiar with the area. I actually grew up in (and biked all over) San Jose/Campbell. My sister's in SF, though, so when I visit I stay with her and am getting to know the citay a bit better!
