yeah, so get a mountain bike lol it's so damn hilly here i mostly just walk but i try to get out on the bike at least once a week... it's been very pleasing to note that i'm getting up the hills faster than when i first got this bike 2 months ago... most places are nowhere near as hilly as this, and i'm ok, also no shoulders, and really very little foot traffic because everything is so slopy when i get out of here and go to the next place i'm planning on getting myself a motorcycle, because i want to be somewhere that far that it's even a workout to ride that around
