Introductions - Tex rider

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.
Hello All - I came upon Bike Forums and was prompted to make my way to introductions, so here goes. I am a native Texan, 43 year old member of the San Antonio Wheelmen( a good cycling club here in South Texas). Like all who have found their way to bike forums, I enjoy cycling as a way to stay in shape. I own three road bikes: a Bridgestone RB2, a classic frame made by McLean Fonieville that I peiced together myself, and a Schwinn Le Tour (circa 1982). All of my bikes are ten years old or older. I never consider myself retro, but I guess time passes by as asphalt under the wheels...Anyway, there is an organized ride here in San Antonio I will be doing this Saturday ( the Wildflower 100). Is anyone out there doing the 5 Boroughs ride in NYC? I've dreamed of doing that one.
Welcome to BikeForums. :beer:
My first bike I had as an adult was an '84-'85?? Schwinn LeTour. Great bike. Wish I still had it. :(
Hello Ron - Thank you for the welcome. Sorry. I am hanging tight to my old Schwinn. What color was yours anyway? I like to think of mine as the 'Silver Explorer'. The bike now has a new seat and Freddy Fenders since it is now my rainy day commuter bike. Funny how we get attached to inanimate objects. How's the cycling in Gorja? - hkelly
