Thanks everyone for you suggestions. I went in to order my Vita Sport and left with a Vita Elite. Much to my suprise and pleasure they had my size in stock and were able to swap out the 28 tires for 38. For the extra $$ the Elite is a much nicer bike and can handle the wider tires, a rack and fenders so I took plunge. Planning on taking it for a spin around the neighborhood tomorrow. Will start taking "supplies" into work on Monday as I was able to clean out two file drawers in my office to use for clothes and grooming supplies.
