Hello from Minsk

Hi everyone from a post-Soviet Belarus. I know this forum is a US and western europe mainly, but I liked it in here so I figured what the heck:-)
I recently got myself a used German Kettler city-bike, alluminum with all the fenders and a kickstand a dynamo-lights equiped. It even has a 3-speed IGH sachs in a very good shape, so so far am pretty happy with my purchase. Got a first trial ride straight from the seller about 20 km - felt pretty well, so I'm planning to commute to work, starting off tomorrow:-)
Nice to be here:-)

Haha, I only half count. I haven't lived in Minsk (Vostok-1) since 1998. Good to have another on here though!
