New to the forum but not to bikes
Just wanted to say hello. My names Hunter and I'm an fsu student in Tallahassee. I've been on a bike for as long as I can remember. I kind of got out of it after my cannondale f400 was stolen when I was a teenager but finally got the bug again when I got a good deal on an 89ish schwinn worldsport a couple years ago. I rebuilt my old 87 mongoose expert and a specialized pos during that break but it wasn't the same. I had to sell the schwinn unfortunately because I was desperate for cash but my girlfriend's friend's husband surprised me with his old single speed motobecane grand record (not sure what year but it wasn't made in Taiwan) as part of my payment for doing some repairs on his house. All it needs is a new front wheel and it's good to go. Some TLC wouldn't hurt either considering it's been in a shed for years but cleaning up and rebuilding bikes is as enjoyable as riding in my opinion. Anyway I'm glad to be here!
