Hi All!!!

I am new to this forum and am eager to climb aboard!

I look forward to drilling you cats for answers to things I have never been able to figure out about my bicycles. As for today, I would like to start on a different note:

If you have not heard the news today, the U.S. body count in Iraq now stands at 2,000 dead. Since I have no big business ties to big corporations there is not a whole lot I can do about it. But I am going to ride my new touring bike 1 mile for every soldier that Bush sentenced to death in Iraq. Can anyone recommend a scenic route? Also, if we could get a sponsorship thing going of say $5.00 per person per mile in this group, we could donate some money to the families for funeral costs as I believe Bush has managed to cut funding for soldier's funerals.

I'll do my part.
