I'm getting into biking quite heavily after moving from California to
Florida. I used to only do mtn biking but here in S. Florida rode biking is all that is really available. My budget is about $1000. I started to look around and noticed the KHS Flite 700 which I can probably get for around my budget. Is has the Campy gear for this year and i believe it had shimano 105 gear last year. It is also quite light at 19 lbs. What are your opinions on the bike? The specs are here: http://www.khsbicycles.com/04flite700spec.html and the pic is here: http://www.khsbicycles.com/04-Flite-700-web.jpg All input is greatly appreciated. |

That sounds pretty tempting. Aren't there loads of elderly people there, though? Any good jobs, maybe something in a small company's IT department, available down there? I'm getting pretty damn tired of this weather, housing is expensive here, and some flatter land would be fun, too. -- Rick Onanian |

That's right, Zoot. It really sucks. Too many old people. Wages are low. High crime. Dangerous roads for biking. Too many rednecks and immigrants. Worst of all: Jeb Bush is governor and every winter we get overrun with Yankees and, even worse, Canadians. You folks wouldn't like it here, so why don't you move to, say, Colorado. Yeah, that's it, Colorado. They have shoulders on every road out there. Bicyclist heaven, it is. That's where you need to go. Stay away from Florida. Too damned hot down here.
