Commuters

[surfgeek33]

Just picked up a Novara Buzz road bike and I love it. Now commuting to work 7 miles each way atleast 3x a week.

Nice. 7-15 miles is a perfect commuting distance. Not too long to sap your energy for the workday and not too short for a workout.

I work at home so no commuting but just rode into town for breakfast on my Pugsley and the latest storm left enough snow for my pedals to leave imprints. Looks like a lizard track.

Been a great snow/errands bike, the weight and fatties are a good combo for just plain getting around and for training, grocery getter racks are in my future.

2007 Trek 3900, everything bike, back and forth to work in the summer (2 miles each way) and school fall/winter/spring (10 miles each way)

Gets its share of abuse on trails as well.

3,220 miles since July 2009.

I commute 17 or 23 miles each way to work depending on if I start from home or the Park & Ride. I do only commute by bicycle from March to November though outside daylight savings

I use a Trek FX 7.2 as my touring and off weather bike. I did 130 miles on this last June. Boston to Provincetown



My road bike is a Specialized Elite for those nice days

Come to think of it, I'll probably use the Montague, as I can fold it up and fit it inside the Peterbilt, rather than trying to find a safe place to stow the touring bike. Years ago, when I first got back into cycling ('99), I'd remove the front wheel, rest the rear wheel in the passenger footwell, and rest the front forks on the front of the bunk. That could still work with the Surly, but it'll just be easier with the Paratrooper.

You could take a loadlock and put it between the upper faring mounts, drill a hole in the loadlock plates and use the faring mounts with longer bolts. of-coarse your stacks could be and issue. You could then hang your bike on the back of the bunkhouse. I would put a grill cover over it also to keep it clean and out of sight. I don't understand why nobody produces a bike carrier for a semi.

I am a big fan of the new Specialized frame designs

Thank you, The Specialized Elite is my newest bicycle & very light compared to my FX. I am looking forward to next season on this bike. The FX is a fantastic bike. I have had it for 4 years anyway and couldn't be more pleased with its performance. It is only my foul weather bike because it has fenders but it is my touring bike. I want to keep the road bike as light as I can without sacrificing its usefulness to me.
