Well hello everyone! My name is Todd Pringnitz and I am a bike freak! I was born and raised in Grand Haven, Michigan (Grand Haven is on Lake Michigan straight west from Grand Rapids). I got a job working at a bike shop and the rest is history. Worked at the shop through high school made it all the way up to the service manager before leaveing after 4 years. I then went to College for Design Engineering and have been working in that field for approx. 5 years now. I am 24 years old, single (probably explains the number of bikes I own), and also trying to start my own bicycle component company. I own a Voodoo Bizango Mountain bike, a Bianchi Campione Road bike and approx. 5 other misc. mountain and road frames and bikes and more parts than ebay! I also have a bad cruiser bike, which I think I like the best. Built it for $40 and $15 of that was for the cool old schwinn rack! I am an avid Mountain and Road rider and am also a pretty avid social drinker. Bell's Beer is the bomb!!:beer:

VooDude. Went to GVSU in the late 70's. Love that part of the world. Remember sassasfras and sand dunes. How are the beaches at Agnew. How is the riding down Lake Michigan Drive. Last time there saw a bike path almost on the Lake between Holland and Grand Haven. Looked great.
If ever at Ott's on Lake Michigan Drive have a Bell's on me. Sure would like to ride there at least from April to August and September too. Many riders there. Good luck. Jealous you get to live and work bicycles. By the way- welcome.
