Hey everyone

My name's Ryon and I am getting more serious about cycling. I'm about to graduate from UC Irvine and I have been frequenting the group rides in the area. My favorite is Como. My goals for the coming year are to participate in a few cycling events, and to complete an olympic distance triathlon.

I ride a Giant TCR 0 with shimano ultegra components

and an older maria sintesi when commuting or riding around town, or when I feel like a better workout http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a398/Ryguyinlj/BikePhotos-15.jpg

Anyone from the area? Perhaps I've met you on the group rides?

Hi Ryon, check out the regional SoCal forum. You've undoubtedly run across a member or two and never realised it! What is your major?

Welcome back to BF, and feel free to PM me with any questions :) !
