Hey guys! I just joined the forum for a second time a couple of weeks ago, second being that I couldn't remember my member id or password... suck. I'm currently living in Tacoma, Wa and go to school at the University of Puget Sound, but I also spend a lot of time in Seattle when I can, as well as back home in Los Angeles. I'm a huge fan of old steel frames, especially ones from the early-mid 70's, though I'm not particularly biased to one company, or country for that matter. I've already posted on Classic/Vintage and I spend most my time searching through there for sick nasty bikes and answers to my limitless questions.

I currently own two bikes, one Cannondale Killer V-900 mountain bike, which is a terrific bike even with the lack of shocks, which are overrated in my opinion. And then a 70's Falcon Special, which I picked up in Los Angeles of some dude on Craigslist. I absolutely love the Falcon and have been riding on it for a year now, but I feel I don't know nearly enough about it and although I've spent a ton of time researching online, I haven't gotten much further in IDing my own. I plan on taking some good shots of it, posting them on Classic/Vintage and crossing my fingers that some of you awesome senior members can help me out. Thanks a ton, everyone, and I look forward to researching more, submitting questions, and providing answers whenever I can!
