Introductions - Hello from Louisville!

Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.

Hello everybody,
I am now using cycling as my main exercise after many years of running. I'm in my mid-50's and feel like my conditioning is making a comeback and I really enjoy being out. I have a Trek Hybrid and a Giant road bike. I've become a fan of racing after watching the Tour for a few years. I joined here so I can continue to broaden my knowledge about cycling (while slowing down the broadening of my waistline :lol:).
This seems to be a VERY active website and I'm glad I found it.
Welcome to Bike Forums. Got pics of the bikes?
Stop by the 50+ forum and say hello to the "old farts". ;)

This is like pictures of your babies. I've had the Trek since July 1999 (gee, what happened then?:) ) First decent bike I had ever owned. Then a few years ago, I wanted to try a road bike and got the OCR 1.

Welcome to BikeForums!
I'm in Louisville as well. I often join a laid back group ride that leaves from Vic's Classic Bikes at 921 Baxter Ave on Sundays around 9:30a. Happy riding!

Thanks for the welcome guys!
Hey Colonel Lloyd, its neat seeing another Louisvillian. I'm a member of LBC, but still haven't went on a group ride. Next year I am vowing to get out more with others. I got to admit I enjoy being out by myself.
I'll definitely be checking out the over 50 group here as well as the clydesdales. I'm a good size guy. Some would call it fat, I prefer big boned.
