road bike for commuting?

Thanks for the input, tulip - I ended up sending Margo my measurements and the bike was deemed to small. :-( Oh well...BUT...it makes my decision a bit easier.

Since the hybrid I got for free needs some work before I feel safe on it, I may just use it for short jaunts and stick to my original plan - getting a 'cross bike.

Fredwina -- 20" wheels!!! Oh my!

I only ride that bike on Fridays........ think www.bikefriday.com, unless I made a typo and had 20 foot wheels!
