Well I grew up in Detroit where it is about two hours from one side of town to the other on the expressway. So Charlotte is not bad, except that it is about 3 times as big as it was 10 years ago. I used to know a guy that lived 3 hours each way out of Detroit and did the commute every day. I thought he was crazy. Personally, I now think that any town that it take more than 15 minutes to get to anywhere in on a bicycle is too big. --graywolf - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
