New here from The Netherlands
Hi fellow cycling enthusiasts.
I registered a while ago, so here is a brief introduction.
I'm from the Netherlands, 33 years of age and cycling is a common way of transportation out here.
So more or less I started cycling from the age of 4.
At the age of 12 I started to get interested in mountainbiking and bought a Batavus B1 Nitro (steel frame with front suspension.)
Out here there aren't much real mountains, just some off-road single tracks, but still a lot of fun.
Started road biking as well at the age of 15 (on a 70s Koga Miyata Gents Racer) and traded it in for a Giant TCR 2013 (alu framce) last year to climb the Pico Veleta in the south of Spain.
Since then i'm very much into biking on the road. I took part in a couple of Gran Fondo/Centery rides
and planning on taking part in the endurance events (Brevet/Audax)
If there is anything else you want to know, just ask.
