All good news! Now I am not concerned about riding the crap out of it. I really do like the bike - just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing something crazy - or crazier than normal.

So is this:
What you're looking to do with your bike doesn't even begin to scratch the surface of crazy as far as biking goes. Go for it and have fun.

I think riding in that salt water might tend to corrode the chain, so if you're going to ride with sharks, be sure to rinse it off.
As everyone else has said, ride, ride, and have fun!

I just looked up your bike and it's definitely a hybrid. When I think of town/commuter I think of the bikes that are totally upright and this isn't it. Looks perfect for what you are doing with it. I have a Trek fx and it looks like yours. Enjoy!

As long as you don't do this with it, you'll be fine!
(btw, I own this movie on DVD. It is awesome and inspiring)
Wish I could figure out how to imbed this, but standard BB code doesn't seem to work
