What kind of bike do I need? - Biking to and from work ~ 8 miles each way on road and greenway - Occasional recreational biking on roads - I am NOT permitted to start biking competitively or participating in triathelons (but may bike on weekends with friends who do) Thx

Get a low end road racing bike. It will be fun to blow past people on their $3,500 carbon fiber bikes with full Dura-Ace component group on your $700 steele or aluminum bike with Tiagra component group.
along that line, if i ever get the boss to clear me for an ironman, i want to do it on a fixie, not so much for time, but to watch Mr. Tri-Cervelo-Zipp-Aero-BentoBox crap as a blow by.... I may even go old school, cotton sox, wool cycling jersey...leather helmet, they would say "that dude is bad-ass"
Wow. Did is laying down Elliot Spitzer-level coin for that mistress. No wonder you buy so many shoes. Aren't you due for Mac upgrade?
AND he just bought a new HP PC with 24" HD LCD monitor and Doom 3. Yeah...my 'puter is 3 with a POS 19" CRT. I'm definitely due, man.
