I may not stick around long

The overbearing and ridiculously demanding password app is garbage and I have no idea what password was assinigned!

But I am working on a meridian


I don't even see how to post pics, so screw this place

All I wanna know is where you stand on uninvited drafting while riding the bike path.

Other than that, this ain't an airport, no need to announce departures.

Good handle, proper BF attitude. Should fit right in and even become a dominant force.

Welcome aboard! Once you get your password thing straightened out, just look up and to the left to the "gallery" button. Click that then click "my pictures" and load up pictures and we can see them. Then ask your questions here:
https://www.bikeforums.net/bicycle-mechanics/
You'll fit right in here. Meridians are fun! This is my password app, it works pretty good:

Thanks for the tip. I didn't know you could post pics only after 10 posts, but of course I never read anything... lol I was about to post pics of the upgrades I had done this morning, but I guess everyone will have to wait. I believe this is only my 3rd or 4th post. Oh, well...
