In jeans and no helmet with a bike 20 lbs heavier I passed a lance armstrong type on the I-90 floating bridge last summer, it's like a 2 mile straightaway

dude was def upset. I'm a beefy stocky type he was skinny, maybe a decade older. Maybe he'd have gotten me on a long hill, but on a straightaway he had no chance.

Absolutely. Just knocked out a 20 miler in our metroparks. Really fun way to be in nature while getting great exercise *

Absolutely! Been riding 3-4 times a week pretty much since about 14 years ago, when we moved out to where there aren't many cars or much pavement.**

I'm riding my bike daily to rehab from a broken tib fib. I'm finding the cycling guys look down on me for my lack of helmet and non conforming apparel*

Honestly I might have but I have had so many problems with every single bike I have ever owned (including my kids' bikes) that I gave up on it.*
