Introductions - Long time lurker, First time poster.

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.

Hey, I'm Dan. Been around bikes for a long time. This is me (in orange) at a race on swain mountain in '94-

Currently back in school finishing my undergrad at Cornell and working as a paid mechanic at our community bike recycler/coop. Before that, worked all kinds of jobs from operating bottling lines for both wineries and breweries to fixing cars to setting up tree nurseries in Mongolia.

I'm sure that not only can I learn a lot here, but that I can also be [somewhat] useful. Plus, it's pretty rad to actually be able to post.

Seems I need 50 posts to send and receive PMs. I think that's a little silly myself, but hey, rather than spam up everyone else's intro threads like Forums user "RaleighSport" suggested, (http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php/789609-Shimano-105-5600?p=13756192&viewfull=1#post13756192) I figure I'll just spam up my own.

Well, that's post number 9. 41 to go.
