Hello everybody,
In six months I will be returning to the US to start college and as I've been making my preparations a thought keeps popping up, transportation. True, I don't need anything more than the citybus or the occasional lift from a friend but I'm beginning to think that buying a bike might be worth the money/time to learn to ride/risk. I decided to join the forum so I could gather information and make an informed decision when I do buy a bike rather than rushing into things and into the ER.
But thats not going to be for quite some time, most likely not for a year at the soonest because I still have to get settled in and see if I'm going to be able to afford a bike + insurance. But in the mean time I figure I'll lurk and ask questions from time to time.
So who am I?
I was born in Santa Rosa California but I moved to southern Mexico two years ago and have six more months left before I return to the California to start college (culinary arts).
I like a wide range of music ranging from anne murray to 80's alternative rock, to blues, to hardcore industrial.
I speak English, Spanish, and am learning French. I hope to be trilingual before I return to the US.
I'm just a really relaxed guy in general.
Alex,
