I only road ride and it's very rare than I have issues. I do my very best to go on roads with light traffic so that could be a factor. <br /><br />I wouldn't think that you'd have to be on busy roads all the time living where you do but perhaps it's a NH driver thing?

How retirement portfolio does, housing prices, whether my job here stays satisfying, etc. I'd really like to reach a point where work is optional, where I could go into full retirement or at least semi-retirement and consult or teach. This would not be less than three years from now, but hopefully in 4-5 years.
