Hello from the Dallas area!
Hey everyone, my name is Saul and I've been riding for about 3 years now. I'm now getting into vintage bikes after a friend of mine gave me a 1977 Motobacane! I'm currently working on restoring a 1972 Cilo Swiss Sprint-X.

Welcome Saul, I have been spending quite a bit of time on BF the past few months. One of the pleasures is looking at photos of bikes of all kinds. Some of the C&Vs are just plain works of art. I have been learning quite a bit from the help I have been so graciously given by members. Pictures go a long way in getting what one is looking for regarding questions on all bike topics.

Thanks for the warm welcome delbiker1. I'm already seeing how helpful people are and I'm enjoying seeing pictures in the different posts. I'm looking forward to learning from everyone here and being of help when I can.

Welcome to Bike Forums. Probably the best place to see some very nice classic steel in the DFW area is White Rock Lake. I like riding there and usually ride classic steel or TI
