Michigan mountain/road bike 67 y/o
Hello to everyone. It's nice to find what seems to be a great forum to share information about biking. Both mountain and road.
I am a 67 y/o father of one beautiful Daughter and currently living in SouthEast Michigan. I have lived in Seattle and Olympia, WA and Park City, UT where most of my biking has taken place. Also in Tyler, TX - North Port Orchard, FL - Oahu, HI and Bremen, Germany.
When riding either the mountain or the road bikes, I most enjoy the long casual or faster paced trailhead rides with coffee stops. Hopefully there will be enough of those locally, for day or weekend trips. No-bike-shoulder roads are tolerated, but avoided when possible.
Thanks
