Tucker, a bicycle guy, and an aquaintence of mine mentioned this forum to me and at first glance I feel like I have found my tribe. I come from a motorcycling background and in recent years have rediscovered bicycles and cycling. I looked at getting a smaller motorcycle, like a 250 or so and then I looked at ebikes and thats what I got. After riding the ebike I decide to try my old mountain bike to see if my fitness level had improved enough to be able to climb some of the local hills. I found that I was fit and happier,and healthier for cycling. Then the collecting and wrenching started for me. That brings me here and I have entered the skinny wheel buildoff. My entry is called Mixed up Mixte. I am known as 100 mile howie.
