Hi everybody!
I am somewhat unaccustomed to intro posts (I'm a graphic designer and the art forum I usually post on isn't exactly keen on intro posts :). Anyway. I'm from Oregon (see post title) and have a general interest in cycling. Mostly I ride a road bike('04 Trek 1000, or '79 Schwinn Traveler for commute), but--when the weather permits--enjoy dusting off the mountain bike('98 Trek 820 with no suspension O_O) and attacking the trails around my home. I've been mountain biking for ~10 years, but doing the road thing for only 2.5--got started when I went to college and realized that riding my mountain bike around town is not an enjoyable activity. Now that I'm done with college, I figured I'd take a spin across the country (standard transamerica trail and whatnot). I'm hoping to start that in May.
Nice to meetcha, great forum!
