Haven't been here in a long while. I'm in SE Michigan and riding a Gazelle T9 Medeo that I bought in 2020 during the lockdown in Michigan. It was my respite from all the fear at the time, and I continue to ride it for most of my rides. I had a conventional Townie bike that was beautiful and just...
