Bac~Os and bicycles
Just a couple things t'mention; one, Bac~Os are freaking awesome.
And two, I totally want a bicycle, at least by this May. But I don't know what to look for. What makes a good bike, well.. a good bike? A little help please?

The definition of a good bike depends on the terrain you're planning on using it on. For example, a mountain bike would be fantastic for rocky terrain, but pretty much a waste of bike specs on a suburban street.

I would research before shopping :D

Not a bad idea.. I don't know the first thing about bikes. XD; But riding with Jen in Texas made me want one again, since the last time I rode one was when I was a kid. ..Anyway, I want something for the street/sidewalk, something with reliable brakes.. I don't care about something capable of going too fast.. but I don't wanna be limited to something too slow, either.. I guess all I can do is look around and ask questions, huh. ^^

Heh, I actually do use a mountain bike for riding on the sidewalks around town. I bought it mostly because they were $200 cheaper than any of the street bikes, though they don't take off nearly as fast. It's heavy though, so it really gets zooming when going down hill, and I've also built up a lot of leg muscle using it because I have to work nearly twice as hard on flat or uphill stretches as I would with a street bike (at least, according to one of my friends who runs a bike store). I love my mountain bike, but then again, I love my unicycle too, and I know neither are very well suited for suburban transportation. ^^
