I am doing the same thing. I used to do BMX and downhill racing. I stopped all my physical hobbies basically in college. This summer I got into road biking while in Texas and got hooked. In Houston, the automobile capital of the country possible (over 7 million cars), I walked on roads without sidewalks or shoulders, or rode my 40+lb road bicycle. This summer I am getting a better bike and will be riding in slightly more friendly conditions, I think. I intend to do more touring trips, though. I could possibly contribute to anything put together for biking if ecomodder (or you) wanted additional content.
At the very least, we can complain to each other about those cars
