Hello from Vancouver (BC)

New here from Vancouver, as I get back into biking. Can no longer run as I would like, so I've unearthed my old road bike -- so old it has only 7 speeds on the cassette (I thought that was a ton back then).

Advance apologies for probably taking more than I can give, as I can't remember a thing about bike repair etc.

If anyone has tips for good rides in or near Vancouver, let me know!

Cheers
Chris

Hey Chris,

Welcome to Bike Forums.

Get some new tires and tubes.

While you are at the bike shop ask about rides and riders that you could meet up with.

welcome to Bike Forums. You can also ask the folks in the PNW subforum and the Western Canada subforum about good bike shops and ride info.
