I don't know much about bicycle mechanics, but I admire framebuilders and the alt bike builders. My nutrition and training isn't sufficient for a triathlon, and I'll never get into the Tour de France, but some day I'll be car free and can devote my time to advocacy and safety.

I've been away from bicycling and BF for a while and probably should post in Introductions, but what the heck - I like bikes in general so here I am...
