Southwind

Hi, I'm Southwind & I'm 76 years old. I rode my first bicycle when I was 4 years old, then went to motorcycles in my 20s, & back to bikes in my 60s. I sold my last motorcycle in 1992 partly because of my risky driving habits. :o) I have a Huffy Good Vibrations, & a Huffy Hermosa Cruiser 6 speed. The cruiser is a good looking good riding bike, except the 6 speed derailleur has much room for mechanical improvment, so I ordered a Schwinn Cruiser 7 speed hub shifter.

I normally just ride around the neighborhood here in Texas, but occasionally take my bike to a park or the beach.

Catch me later. VL

Welcome to BF, VL! Keep on rolling! Where in TX are you? I imagine that your cruiser is nice to have on the beach. I was on Port Aransas last year, and that seemed to have a nice long stretch of packed sand to ride on.

cheers!
