I have not heard about anyone getting a bike / scooter... although i an considering it.

my commute is 12 miles - and the roads not well made for Bicycles ( no real burm in many places and "illegal" to ride on sidewalks)

Safety is my biggest concern. have 2 little girls at home and do not want to miss anything they do because someone was careless.

SWMBO ( She who must be obeyed) mentioned that if our next house is less then a 5 mile commute to the my office - and Bicycling is still not an option - then she could see a Scooter or small motorcycle

(( Secretly i am looking for the bike to convert to Electric - simular to El Ninja))
