It's going to be my commuter. My office is 3.5 miles away from my house.

Very nice I have been looking for something like that myself.

Have fun with it,

I used to bike it to work during the nicer months. not so great on a hot day as you get a bit sweaty but night rides are great!

I live in Oregon. It's only hot about 6 days out of the year here.

I feel your pain. Thats how our summer was here. The common thought was "what summer?" We struggled to get past 70 degrees, even in august.

We hit 90 and a 100 a couple times this year. But I actually prefer the cooler weather. 55 degrees at near sea level makes engines happy

Especially turbo engines
