Hi all

Yes, I'm dumb as a box of rocks about bicycling but I'd like to learn.

I'm a geezer, 59 years old, living in Western North Carolina, interested in a road bike.

My particular problem is my height, I'm 6'5" tall and in the dim mists of antiquity, when riding, my knees would give me trouble from being unable to extend enough.

It seems that another impending problem for me is the seemingly extreme cost involved in bike purchase, oh well, one bridge at a time.

I'm open to suggestions

Tim
