Hi everyone! For the last 6 years or so I've been doing google searches (trying to figure out what are those old bikes I like so much, and then how do I mess with them?) which kept leading me to the classic and vintage section of this forum. I figured I should say hi. I have an old Windsor that I'm fixing up - (lots of questions about that in the future) and an electric trike that I use to cart my kids around. I'm really enjoying learning how to wrench on my bike

I am relatively new also. You will find the people here helpful and very knowledgeable. There is a treasure trove of information about bike types, parts and frames in the previous posts. I found this forum through searching about a frame I was considering buying. Those searches kept bringing me here. I use the search function frequently.

Welcome, Mark

Welcome! I'm new here also but have been tinkering with bikes for 45+ years. There's just a good feeling with riding a bike that's adjusted properly!
