A group I can relate to!!
I just found this site and I'm glad to find like minded individuals. I am truly a Clydesdale at 6'5" 300 ex-football player. I love to ride and have been doing so for years. I'm glad to find a place where I can ask about durable parts and larger clothing. (I need a winter jacket.)

MPR, Welcome to the forums. OK... I have to ask. Where and for whom did you play football?

Thanks for the welcome. Nothing spectacular for the football. Quite boring actually. Went to D-1 college in California. Bounced around the league for a while trying to find a permanent home. Ironically, an off season MTB accident ended the career.

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.
