Bikes and Trains in LA
Hi folks.
Aaron here. Live in Los Angeles, CA. I have been cycling for about 12 years. I have a Specialized Allez Sport and Dahon D7 (folder). I got rid of my car in April and have been using my bike as transportation in the city and I love it. I am really over the car thing and see what other like-minded folks think. I tell people in L.A. I got rid of my car and they look at me like I am crazy and usually say something to the affect of 'that won't last long.' 9 months later...still taking my folding bike on the metro. Anyway, greetings!!

Welcome to the forums. I think we all have our stories of us being called crazy for riding in (insert weather/traffic/terrain) here.
