New to the forum from Northern Michigan
I'm an old guy living in Northern Michigan in USA. While not new to biking, I had not ridden for 30 years until last summer. The old thrill returned quickly.
I am in process of refurbishing my old, somewhat rusty, 40 year old Motobecane Grand Record.I remember it as a great ride and plan to put some miles on it during the coming riding season. Currently riding my daughter's (she's 45 now so you can guess how old I am) FUJI Storm Mountain Bike that she bought some 25 years ago. It cleaned up nicely and is running very nicely.
I joined the forum to get some advice on my Motobecane project. I am pretty well experienced in bike mechanics but will have a few technical questions. Also - I enjoy the camaraderie of the biking crowd.
