Howdy,

I have been really into biking for about two years now. It started out as recuperation from a bum knee, then biking turned into commuting, and now it has become a sport, hobby, and job for me. Right now my only bike is a Masi Speciale Fixed. I plan on building up a new road bike in the next year with SRAM Rival. I have not decided on the frame yet -- I am leaning towards Soma though (carbon frames cost so much and aluminum does not ride nearly as nice as cro-mo).

My wife has also gotten into biking since I became interested. She cruises around on a sweet Felt Z-70. We ride around Portland and have a lot of fun with it. I plan on entering the racing seen next year (both track and road).

Could we see photos of the Masi? What year is it?

Many of the folks here are from Portland. Erm, that would be Portland OR, correct?

If so, check out the regional forum for the PNW.

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