It is good to see so many enjoying biking, something my son enjoys... me? no thanks I am too old, and I had a bad experience while on base in arizona. The chain on my bike (just like tthe one in your video) came loose locking up the rear wheel sending me flying over the handlbars at 30 mph. I haven't forgotten the feeling of dirt, blood, fabric, skin and gravel from the road mixing together on me. so I will never know the thrill of moving along at 112 mph on one.

my best wishes to all of you.

They have a biking event here called the rot rally. R.O.T. (republic of Texas) mostly Harley Davidson bikes, Attendance has surpassed ten thousand or so and it last over the weekend. they hold it at a convention center. The streets get plenty crowded in the dowtown area of Austin.
