Hi! Stopping by to introduce myself. I'm Les and, as you can see, I'm from RI.

I just got back into cycling after being away from it since being a teen......some 40+ years ago. My doctor wanted my to start exercising and I'm NOT a gym rat in any way, shape or form and hate "exercise". Then I remembered how much fun I had as a youth riding my old Raleigh 3 speed English bike all over the place as a kid and thought it might be fun again.

I recently purchased a Raleigh Venture 3.0 and I'm loving it! In the first three days I've owned it, I put 70 miles on it and feel like I could just keep going forever!

So.....hey everbody!

I'm going to try some commuting but, for the most part, I'll be on the bike path as well. Haven't done the entire Greenway yet but, I've got a few segments of it under my belt.

Thanks everybody!

Let me ask....which sub forum is most appropriate to the "Comfort bike" genre around these parts?

have you tried general forum."All topics that are technically oriented towards bikes but don't fit elsewhere.
give a try if your wrong some-one may suggest which forum to use

i just did a site search
there isn't any specific to comfort bikes nothing special shows up.

Hi, neighbor. I'm in southeast Massachusetts. I just got to this forum yesterday, joined in part because of the Hybrid forum. It's the closest thing to Comfort bikes around.
