Hello!
Brand new to the forum, and brand new to bike commuting lifestyle, although I have been riding for quite a while. Happy to find such a big community here!
Currently riding a mid-80’s Miyata 1000LT, that I love dearly, and looking to learn about touring, building, and restoring vintage steel frames. Hopefully I’ll get enough posts to start putting up pictures!

Welcome. See ya in C&V.
Big touring group of vintage steel guys. Lotsa followers of the 1000.
i’m a steeper angles guy. And 42 on the stays is plenty of heel clearance.
