Hello, new member here checking in.

I live in Cortland, NY (about 30 miles south of Syracuse) and am an engineer by training but a bodger at heart. I have been butchering cars, trucks, machinery and wood for as long as I can remember, so framebuilding seems a natural for me.

I've been away from cycling for a number of years and starting to get back into it for health reasons (doctor's orders and all that). In a serious effort to lose the spare tire and get the cholesterol down, I started to look into cycling again.

My current project is a clone of the Easy Racers' Tour Easy recumbent bike. It is being built as a combination of the plans which Easy Racers published many years ago and those shown on Andy Carson's web site, www.recycledrecumbent.com.

That's it for now.

Mike

Hello Mike, I haven't seen any further posts from you--I hope that doesn't mean that you don't like BikeForums :eek: .

Do you have any interest in vintage bikes? Seems as if that would be right up your alley, seeing as you enjoy bodgering :D .

Welcome to BF!
