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.StuartJackson

Sureal really! At 55 years old, never thought I'd start cycling again and never thougt I would be blogging either!! Used to cycle a lot during my late teens (70's!!), but gave it up at University. Re-started a couple years back, to improve fitness level and to remove that mass of stuff, which rests on my cross bar and is embarrassingly exposed when I stand up in my tight lycra shirt!!
Came across "Bike Forums" after watching a TV programme about a guy (I think his name was Rob Penn) who traveled the world to build his bike by using the best components available. It reminded me of when I built my first road bike, and purchased a frame from a UK company called Clive Stuart. I was curious to learn about this company - whether it still existed etc, etc. I was amazed with all the communication related to the history of this company.
Anyway, that got me hooked and so I've now registered. Hope to speak to you all later - especially when I've lost that 30 pounds!!
