I wrote an introduction message a couple of weeks ago when I first joined. But, I think by the time I hit the submit button, the session had timed out and it didn't get posted.
Anyway, about myself...As an adult I started riding a few years ago at the age of 40. When I was buying my bike, I did a lot of research, I visited several local bike shops and ended up buying a Devinci Copenhagen hybrid bike.
I am a skier and started biking mostly to stay in shape during the late spring-mid fall. But, like almost everyone else here I fell in love with cycling. I spend a fair amount of my time reading about skiing and cycling training, nutrition, equipment etc.
I tend to research a lot before I buy anything and that is how I ended up on this forum. I am seriously thinking about upgrading to an endurance road bike and some of the discussions on this site has been tremendously helpful.
Anyway, I am planning to be a relatively active member. Of course, not as active as some of the other people but I will try to contribute by sharing the limited knowledge that I have.
That is all for now.
