Hey Everyone,

My name is Pete and tonight was my first ride in 10 years. I live in SW Virginia and when I moved here at 14 the traffic was not accepting of riders so I was somewhat forced to quit. I ride a Diamondback Expert TG, which suits my needs for now. I just wanted to introduce myself and hopefully find some local riders (Lexingon, Staunton, Hot Springs). When I was young I purchased parts from Bike Nashbar, does anyone have any suggestions for better stores? Mainly just shoes, clothes, parts, etc. Thanks and I look forward to sharing my experiences getting back into shape.

Pete

Welcome back to cycling...it missed you. Try going to the regional discussions just below introductions and put in a request of meeting some locals.

As for on-line stores....
