G'day Bill!
I started racing BMX in 1983, started working in and around bike shops from 1986, I've raced most disciplines: road, TT, triathlon(does that even count?!?), XC, DH, 4X, criterium, BMX, and I've got about 9 bikes currently(N + 1 rule!). I also have a soft spot for performance cars, surprisingly. Just refurbing a 1998 Bianchi Boron XL as my latest project...
