Newb from Ohio
Name: Brooks Church
Age: 23

Occupation: Firefighter/ Paramedic
Hobbies: Racing/ Drifting/ Xbox 360
Just bought my first road bike!
Viscount Aerospace G.P.
First day went on a 8 mile ride. Loved it. But the seat is terrible.

Now looking into doing a Single Speed 700c Conversions with white wheels and red tires and chain!

Welcome to the forum. That is a classic, you might want to consider keeping it in it's original form. Does it have the Aluminum "death fork" or one of the chromed steel replacements. That looks like a higher end model, I love those cranksets that they came with. Red and white seems fitting for a firefighter/ paramedic.
You should post this in the classic and vintage forum, they will love it!

I lived in Canton for most of my life about 29 years, I live in Lancaster, PA now. I know some Keller's though if that's your last name.

Yes, that is my last name. My dad Mark is a graduate of Perry High School. He has a brother (Jeff) and two sisters (Kris and Joan). There are a bunch of other Kellers running around but those are my immediate relatives.

Thanks for the welcome. Been doing like 20+ miles about 3 times a week around OSU campus and some trails.
Broke some stuff on it and now don't have all the viscount symbols on the bolts.

Welcome ! from another former buckeye of the Cinci variety. That is a fine looking bicycle. I especially like the chain-rings/cranks.
