Hello from RVA

Hi all,

I've been enjoying this site since before I purchased my first road bike. I appreciate the knowledge that is shared here so much. It is an invaluable tool.
I am still in the midst of the learning process but hope to be able to offer any insight I may have.
Currently I am working on my first bike build. A Vitus with Mavic and Campy components.
You can check it out if you want at https://www.offcenterdesign.org/mode/?page_id=9 .

Being an a (mostly) un-abashed noob I can freely admit that the bike count is not impressive in either quantity quality. Here it is.

1990 Vitus 979


1983 Trek 500


??? ??? (anybody have a clue?)



I feel fairly introduced now.

Rob

Hello Rob,

Consider yourself fairly welcomed, too.

Welcome to BF!

By the way, I can't see the photos...

Thank you personally,

I checked the source code for the page and all the img links are correct and they are definately uploaded on to my server. I don't know. Is anyone else having this problem?

Welcome here.

I find the bike count interesting, especially for someone who proclaims to be a newbie. The important part is to have one bike and to ride it.

P.S. I see the photos.

You are correct. I have one bike that I ride. One bike that I lock up overnight. One that I am building.
I like bikes as well as enjoying the ride.
