Hey all,
Newbie here. Joined yesterday. A little of my biking background...

My first bike was a big old Schwinn my dad got for me at the Chicago Police Auction. I think it cost him $5.00. It was a tank. Today I still ride the first bike I ever bought - '63 Motobecane Grand Record. About 2 years ago I got a Specialized Hardrock to do a little off-roading. And now I'm looking to pick up another road bike. I put an '03 Fuji Newest on layaway until I decide if it's really something I want to do.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to reading/posting here. I've already gotten some valuable information. :)

I'm in Roselle.

For those who've never heard of Roselle, Schaumburg is our neighbor to the north.
