I had a kind of interesting conversation at work today. A really nice co-worker came up and asked for suggestions for inexpensive commuting bikes.

Of course, I gave him all the usual advice about fit, quality, etc., and steered him in the direction of some of the better LBSs in that regard.

The neat thing is, I haven't been in the least evangelical about bike commuting (or anything else...), just have gone on my merry way and done my own thing. I'm a good example - I can't believe it.
