Yeah it is Dennis. I get three weeks of vacation time now instead of two. I just turned in leave request slips for this august. Im planning on taking 4 straight weeks off. Provided it is all approved.

Depending on the type of riding you want to do will help decide on the type oof bike you want to look at. A good bike store can really help you out. If your only going to be riding on paved roads, packed gravel trails ( I.E the NCR trail here in MD as an example) you could go with a good hybrid bike with a good front suspension and several speeds to choose from. If you just want to stick to roads only you can get a road bike. If you want to do off road type biking ( I.E. mountain trails) you would want to look for a good mountain bike with at least a front suspension and maybe disc brakes.
