New from No Virginia
Hey, new member here from Northern Virginia. Totally new, haven't been on a bike since I was a kid. Just bought a Trek DS and looking forward to incorporating some riding with my workouts, and perhaps commuting.

Welcome, another new guy here also. I used to commute in Northern Va, Springfield to Tysons area, back in the 90s. I drove through that area a little while ago, did not even recognize it...
