2manybikes ... generous of you to offer ... thanks :) But you probably ARE right, it may be hardly worth it when you consider even a small amount for shipping. Plus I'd still be lacking...

"Dashboard" lights?

When riding at night I can't see my bike computer display (no backlight), nor can I see which gear I'm in. (Too dark to see the indicators on the shifters.)

Has anyone already devised a...

I just picked up a mirror today. (Sticks in my handlebar end) The borrowed bike I'd been riding for a few weeks had one, and when I got my new bike, the lack of mirror was very disconcerting. ...

That's awesome ... I just picked up riding in late Aug and have been doing perhaps 9-10m a day, nearly every day. Loosing weight also.

Ha ha ... Sixty-Fiver ... my son named our cat YUKI also.

I named my new bike today. It's Michael The Cycle, or Mike the Bike for short.

Update ... got my new bike today ... Norco Yorkville.
I really like it. It's amazing though, what a different ride it is from the Giant Sedona. Much stiffer. It's just like two different bikes!

Hi 65er and East Hill. Appreciate the welcome.

E.H., I did run across one St. John's rider on here, named 'ducksa', though we haven't connected yet. Quite the community on this forum.

Search users by region?

Some forums I've been on, you can search (or browse) the member list by region (country, state/prov, city ...). It's a neat way to find like-minded people in your own geographic area.

Hey ducksa ... I'm in St. John's also and I'm facing the same decision as you were. I have it easier though - I don't have as much money to spend - narrows it down :)

I am also looking at a...

Hey Ron, thanks for the input.
