OKay so no biking for transpo.. haha after being here for less then 2 full days I can already see that would be less then safe, even horribly tragic?

Any how, I am stil wondering if anyone has an idea of where I could buy an affordable bike (as i am only here for a month) as well as any social rides happening?

I guess I am in the same boat as a lot of people here, but i am looking for a pal or two to hang out with. I am pretty normal where it counts, not looking for a hook up or anything, i've got a great girl at home. Just a friend outside of work to hang out with, do seemingly cheesy touristy things... camel races? biking? sandboarding (I can teach you if need be, i taught snowboarding for 3 years and i am sure its transferable)

blah blah... see you at the bike races this week!
