Hello from Pittsburgh, PA!
Hi Everybody,
I've been reading the forums for awhile and decided to join. Some great posts and reading!
I'm a 56yr old who rode 10 speeds in the 70's and then sort of got out of riding until later in my 30's only then I bought a mountain bike which I still have and in the process of restoring/resurrecting. I've gotten the urge to ride again and reading posts on the forums it seems like a not so uncommon thing. While I'd really like to get a road bike I think I'm going to do my best getting my mountain bike back on the road and go visit some of the various spots in Pittsburgh to ride a bike. It seems to really have flourished and I'm finding so many spots doing a little search online. Hopefully I can get out there and ride making the deicison to go ahead and buy a road bike a good one!
Thanks and looking forward to getting to know the community!
