THANK you all

[ssstiv63]

I did a quick intro, but wanted to take a minute to say I am extremely impressed w/the welcome I've received here. I once registered on a more *serious* cycling forum and although I have been riding, wrenching(professionally)& racing(mediocrely if that is a word)for most of my 49 years, I got a pretty cool reception- kinda *Oh, you're new here aren't you*
NOT the case here- and I very much appreciate it. I hope to contribute something useful myself. :mrgreen:

It does have a more receptive atmosphere here, while the users range the full gamout (hardcore collectors to full customizers) that does not ever seem to get in the way.

Welcome, and to everyone else, thanks for letting me have some fun too!

70s Raleigh Professional track bike- nearly complete(disregard *hipster* cockpit setup; bar & stem are the most glaring omissions from full resto-able). Very ratty, I think.

Warning I mean it
Ok count the number of bikes you have right and have owned thru the years. Now if you continue to lurk and post here in 1 to 2 years time you may find that you now have more bikes in your possession at one time!! than you ever owned thru all the years. I currently have 20 or so, 2 years ago 3. You have been warned now relax and enjoy. Welcome I know how you feel about some of the other sites. :lol:
