Hey there from Boca Raton, FL
Until around 3 months ago, didn't ride a bike since grade school. You know, the one with the basket on the handlebars? Grade school was back in the early 60's if you get my drift LOL.
When the doc said I needed to bike to strengthen my knees, someone dropped off an old Huffy mountainbike that had been left outside in the elements for a couple of years. I toyed around with it until I began taking it on 15 mile rides down A1A on the beach. I decided I needed a better more comfortable bike and tomorrow I'm coming home with a new one from my local bike dealer. I'm psyched and ready to ride. If I could do 15 miles on that thing, just wait...
I like to ride on A1A and watch the sun rise over the ocean and I enjoy riding through the local parks. I'd like to find others who aren't in a hurry to leisurely tour Florida at a comfortable pace anywhere up the East Coast or through the panhandle as a group.
Glad I found this site and hope to make some friends here.
