Hello from NC coast

Hello all,

New rider here from the North Carolina coast. Having a blast riding the roads here. Currently riding a Surly Cross-Check. Also enjoy taking the bike off-road a bit.

I’m here because I’m really enjoying road riding and I’m interested in getting a vintage steel road bike. Maybe a Raleigh? Looking forward to your posts and opinions.

Awesome! That’s quite the haul. I’d like to do some long distance touring. Planning to do some bike packing this fall.

I ride the Oriental area. It's very bicycle friendly. Come try it.

I’ll have to try it. Riding in Wilmington is like riding on a drag strip… crazy
