Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.Steve L

Just found this forum today. Seems like a pretty nicely done discussion group.
I don't ride a lot anymore, age, time and some serious back injuries have seen to that. However, with my eleven year old son being quite the athlete and having a big interest in road bikes and maybe racing, I am getting back into it finally.
I have always been an avid cyclist, even worked part time as a bile mechanic after my injury just to keep in it someway. But throughout high-scholl, college and up to early 30s I was almost always on my bike. Not a gear junkie, as I'v eonly owned two quality bikes. I got a Raleigh Supercourse in 1971 (when I was 14) that I rode, toured and raced until I was in my late 20s. Then I bought a Fuso (30th Anniversary edition) that I have ridden ever since.
Used to be a 300 mile a week rider, now I am happy with 5 to 10 mile rides wiht my son. Pretty exciting seeing him do 20 miles on a Giant 225 mountain bike. I have already posted a question regarding getting him into a road bike.
Otherwise, I am into music and audio equipment. I used to write for Listener Magazine about both, and am now Senior Assitant Editor of Positive Feedback Online (www.positive-feedback.com), which is one of the largest specialty audio web sites on the net.
That's it for now!
