Just wanted to say hello to everyone. I am new to the Bike Forum.
As far as intorductions, I live and ride in west-central Indiana, 15 miles from IL line. I am an IL native ... thus the name "oldillini" ... displaced to IN for career purposes.
I am not new to riding just new again. 10-12 years ago I was riding 130-150 miles weekly, but when my youngest daughter was diagnosed with a rare disease I focused my energy elsewhere. The girls are now in college and I am back in the saddle.
I ride a 15 year old Raleigh road bike. Nothing fancy but it works for my 60-75 miles a week. Once tuition payments are over I hope to get a newer set of wheels.
I look forward to joining in when possible and hope all your rides are safe!
