Welcome from Ireland

I live in Ireland. near Cork
For almost 30 years I'm collecting unwanted bicycles from scrapyard to fix them and hand over, use or sell. My little hobby started when I couldnt afford to buy a bicycle... as for now I never in my life purchase a brand new bicycle from shop.
Now my hobby evolve into making replicas of vintage racing bikes (or bikes inspired by 1930's racers.

Welcome from a fellow newb! I had a chance to visit your gorgeous country back in high school on an educational trip and found the "emerald isle" moniker to be perfectly apt. I have plans to go back sometime now in my adult life and I would love to bike on those gorgeous country roads!
