Hi from Victoria, BC
Hi, new here, nice board. I've been a daily commuter for almost a year (MTB), just bought my first road bike, Trek 2100 with the Ultegra group. So far, lovin' it!!

Hey badhabit, welcome to forum...took me a while to utilise search...try 'victoria', 'vancouver' or 'Vancouver Island', works 
went to sleep listening to rain, wake up to this...3:25 now. Sunny cool breeze, gotta before the usual whether returns. I like trek's, sounds good.
talking of flats, since privatization, I have been getting more along the main routes, I pack 2 tubes, and a kit - maybe overkill...but I have had to use all of them on the Penninsula before.

Not liking the road, cars stink, are dangerous. Skinny tires? no.
