another thing to think about xoB is that once you're astride the bike, it's not that hard to ride a mile. and once you've gone a mile (or more) you're probably gonna want to get back, so there's two right there, eh? of course you know how to ride a bike, how could you forget, right? I'm just sayin, like here, in my area, I don't have easy access to the trails like our resident gearhead above. I *have to* ride on the road if I want to travel on the bike at all unless I go to the hassle of installing the bike rack, loading them up, and traveling to a trail. Even then, I prefer pavement because of the limits of my equipment.
