Hello!
Hi all! I've been lurking the last few days and thought I would finally introduce myself. I used to bike every day when I was younger but my spouse and kids never enjoyed it as much as I did, so I gave it up for a few years. I know now that if all of us had the "right" bike, we would be biking together. Anyway, I saw a Shinola bike recently and it looked so darn pretty! I knew I had to get back in the saddle. My MB isn't cutting it though so I recently bought a Raleigh Sprite and really like the ride. After spending many hours reading the forums here, I have a pretty good idea how I am going to customize my bike and make it even better. Looking forward to the discussions and advice.

Thanks for the welcome! Here's the picture of my "new" bike. She needs some work but I love tinkering with things so it should be fun!
