I ride every chance I get. Even if I know it's going to rain on the ride home. If it's going to rain on the way there, I drive. The weather is turning to poo here and I will have to figure out what my threshold for cold is.

Guam IS nice only that sometimes its super hot or its raining then there's the typhoon watch that occurs a lot this time of year. It's really hard to keep your bike clean. hey where'd you get that info "32nd largest US island"? I didn't know that. thanks!

Yo oct1949 I don't know about you but riding for me is like a vacation the minute riding becomes my job I might start to hate it...nah I prolly would still love it...hehehe...can't wait to get to where you're at (retired) enjoy you deserve it!

I try to ride most of the time. I have one of the best commutes ever; through an oregon scenic biway. However every I do admit sometimes I puss out.

Wikipedia.

I passed thru Guam once on the way to Okinawa. DAAAAAAAYUUUUM. It was 5am, the sun was up, and hotter than hades!

My comment was mostly for the fact that it's so small. One good day trip on the bike, and you've seen the whole Island.

I ride to work everyday that I can, from when the roads break in the spring till they ice over in the fall.
