Just another bike rider
Been a bicycle rider for most of my life. Never owning anything too fancy or fast, Schwinn, Fuji, Panasonic. Most riding revolved around decompressing and finding some alone time. Living out in rural America on gravel, and reaching that magic age of 65, I finally bought my first full suspension ride, STS GT. The area around here has been working towards establishing a trail system and has me thinking more about community rather than independent, "lone wolf", cycling. That is what brought me here. To see what the rest of the world is like.

Welcome to Bike Forums. Glad you joined us.
I'm 73 and most of my riding for the past 18 years has been on roads or bike trails all by my lonesome.
