Hello from Cracow
Hi all!
Greetings from Cracow, Poland.
Former MTB rider from the mid-90's.
I rediscovered my old passion few years ago, and realized that now I can actually buy my childhood dream bikes for peanuts.
As I am a type ofcollector hoarder, I keep on buying bikes. Of course I ride them too 
Currently in my stable:
- Giant MCM F-Suspension '97
- Giant ATX 880 '99
- Trek Multitrack 730 '97
- GT Avalanche AL '93
- GT Timberline '85
Previous bikes:
- Giant Escaper Expert '99
- Panasonic MC Pro '92
- Specialized Stumpjumper ~'91/'92
I am a member of Polish retro Mountain Bike society. If you wanna join us, find "Retro MTB Polska" group on Facebook.
Cheers!

Welcome to the Forum
Hi there and welcome to the forum. I'm somewhat new myself. I joined in 2017 but just started posting today. I like to use the forum as a reference for vintage road bikes of the 1970's. I have learned a lot here.

ZZR bikes, LOL, they are not on my radar for sure, BUT! There is one in my grandparents basement, a 24-incher cruiser, which my mom got in 1968. Pretty much still a stock bike, but of course it looks like a 50+ bike. I used to ride it as a kid, when I visited grandpa and grandma
