I'm going to try out a road bike for the first time after being a lifelong recreational rider. I've mostly been a light recreational rider/commuter who always used mountain bikes. I found a decent 10 speed for $20 and I've spent many hours overhauling each component and learning as I go. I'm just a set of brakes away from completion. Luckily I found [MENTION=84826]randyjawa[/MENTION] 's website early on, and it has been an amazing resource for this project. I've also been enjoying the stories of the bicycles in his collections as much as the technical information. I hope that I can get as much pleasure out of riding this bike as I have while working on it. I've already started looking for my next project bike.
