New from Alabama
Hey everyone new to here from ashland Al. Not sure where to ask this so I'll ask here. I'm a mountain bike but unfortunately due to work and home obligation I'm not able to drive to the trails much now. I love riding to much to just ride on occasion so I need some type of road bike. I live in out in the country so most roads are paved but some are a bit rough. What type of road bike would be best? Good to be here among fellow riders!

welcome! don't know your weight but the thought just occurred to me that it might be helpful to have wheels with more spokes rather than fewer. good luck with your bike search! what fun for spring!
