Hi from Vilnius
Hi from Vilnius, Lithuania. Late-mid 20s guy, riding since early teens (with some breaks) and been lurking in this forum for quite some time.
In my teens I used to compete in road, track and XC races but I haven't raced in a long time now and am more of a Strava junkie. I currently ride road-only but interested in getting a XC bike as well. And I've just ordered my first power meter so I guess that's a step into a new era for me (I love numbers and stats, so the more gadgets for me the better).
The most favourite cycling aspect for me – those long weekend solo rides.

Welcome to the forum. My grandfather was born in Vilnius, though being Polish he referred to it as Vilna.

R.I Greetings from Rhode Island, USA. Long solo rides are my favorite also especially on roads that are new to me. My area has a higher population density than other parts of the US so it can be surprising that there are so many quiet country roads. This means there is a lot of choice about which route to take both for variety and distance.
