Hi Guys and gals

First time here so here is my introduction...

I am in my 60th year and have a cycling history that goes back at least 57 years. I started on a little trike that had a box on the back that looked like a bread bin and contained all my supplies I needed for my trips and space to spare.

I progressed to riding my dads bike when he wasn't looking but because I was so young and small had to put one leg through the frame (it was a 26"er) under the crossbar to reach both pedals and of course could not get anywhere near the seat

OK folks that's my intro but there is lots more I could tell you another time.
best wishes
Vince

Howdy and welcome to the forums! The image of you riding with one leg through the frame makes me chuckle, thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the welcomes folks.

I will take a picture of my current bike and perhaps use it as an avatar. I will also be asking for advice from the experts about what I should do with it in the area of replacing or maintaining it for the next 50 years.
best wishes
Vince
