Howdy! Introductions is for telling us a bit about yourself (if you want). As for your questions, it kinda depends on what kind they are. Example would be service/repair would be better off in Bicycle Mechanics - Bike Forums, but if you have a wide array of subject matter, then General Cycling Discussion - Bike Forums would be fine.
