Congratulations! That's awesome! Pree MMM I'd bought a pricey Trek commuter because I was thinking I'd like to ride to work. After looking through the articles (and Craigslist) I started getting a little mad that I'd spent so much. BUT...I've probably put 2,000 miles on that bike and what it's saved me in gas has paid for it 2 or 3 times over. It's absolutley worth it if you like it and ride it.
