Hello from new vintage guy in the SF Bay Area!

Hello, everybody. I'm glad to discover Bike Forums - I've managed to track down some obscure information here that has proved to be very helpful!


I live in Oakland, California, and have started riding with a club again after decades of riding mostly just to run errands. (I mostly have not owned a car for my adult life.)


Posting my bikes here:
  • 1968 Raleigh Sports - my workhorse for the aforementioned errands.
  • 1982 Team Fuji (repainted by D&D Cycles in 1992) - frankenbike whose components tell various stories of the history of my first chapter with bikes, 1980 +/- 5 years. (Not a current photo - I now have non-aero levers on it and different bar tape (R.I.P.!) and pedals. - but it's the best I've got at the moment.)
  • 1986 Guerciotti Carbonio, which I bought last month. It was my questions about this one that brought me to Bike Forums.

I do intend to join the 21st century with my next bike!


Looking forward to chatting with folks here.
