Just popping to say, "Hi" and tell everyone we're still very much alive ha ha. Been busy, company merger and such, and it so insufferably hot and humid! Seriously,I have to be careful not to sweat damage the shutter etc. on my camera, all of which which has led to not much shooting. Though we should get some relief from the tropical storm/hurricane that's supposed to hit nearby Friday afternoon. Potential for 15-20" of rain, woo hoo! Keeping an eye on whether we'll need to evacuate.
Marcus Rowland, I',m 6' 1" and 200+ even in great shape. My favorite bike for tooling around town is a flat bar single-speed. More upright than a road bike, and easier to pitch around and dodge cars, potholes, etc. with the flat bars. If you want gears, they make the same type of bike with 3 or 5 speed hubs like Peter was talking about.
