Hi, I'm Harry from Colorado. I'm an old guy who loves to ride old bikes. I've been riding and racing the road since I scraped up $100.00 to buy a Schwinn Sierra in '65, and the wind in my face today feels as good as it ever did. After owning all kinds of bikes through the years, I finally admitted that what I really lusted after was the Paramount that I couldn't afford in '65. I put 6200 miles on my Paramounts and our Longbikes tandem last year - sure to be less this year after knee surgery in April (but like I said, I'm getting old).

This seems like a really great forum community - a nice change of pace from some others I've been on.

A big welcome Kingofbeers.

I think you will find there is no such thing as "old guys" or seniors on BFs. DnvrFox's single-handed affirmative action has made sure those who are past the whippersnapper stage are given equal billing whatever their birthdate :)

You'll have a great time

Cheers!
