Well, new as far as bike forums is concerned. My name is Dale, California native, transplanted to Colorado almost 18 years ago,
miss the Santa Cruz mountains, been a collector of steel bikes for about 20 years now, got my first brifter-equipped bike (a 30 year old black Baylis)
maybe 2-3 years ago but still seem to find my go-to for riding always has the old downtube shifters and tubies though that'll probably change this spring!
I am close to retirement finding it hard to quit, (yes...scary) and have to decide if I want to stay in Boulder County or move back to Loma Prieta, my mountain home.

Oh lookie, I am allowed to post pictures. Heh.


decisions, decisions...
