Hi all,
been riding since 2010. Been frequenting this website so much lately decided to go ahead and make a profile so I could see photos. Started out on an old Schwinn collegiate I picked up for $30. With a little more funds I’ve been searching pawn shops and found a few gems. Recently picked up a trek 400 and fell in love with the restoration process and now here I am. Got the bug for fixing old ‘80 era bikes and making em like new again. Got a few other projects in the works now so I’ll need the help. Happy to be a member!

Welcome!
Restoring classic bikes is fun. I have a good feeling you're no stranger to the classic & vintage forum here.
