Hello From California where avocados are sometimes 39c
Hey Everyone,
I am Joseph, I have been "riding" since I was a child but only to go to a friend's house, supermarket, or trails. I'm a new resident of CA so I figured HEY GET A BIKE! I've joined the forum to gather advice, make some internet friends, and source out some parts if possible.
Currently all my bicycles are projects but the 2 that require most of my attention are my GT Pantera Mtb and GT Timberline Mtb

summertime at ALDI'S
The Avocados are at Aldi's. During summer, strawberries etc were like 60c when i first moved here It was wild.
Oh nice where in California are you ? I've spent more time inside than out since moving here. Its quite the adjustment. I blame that on just hanging in the garage too much.
My timberline is all stock with these terrible bull-horn bars. I picked up a new shorter stem and now im looking for just some entry level lightweight bars.
