Hi from La Salle,IL.
Just wanted to introduce myself. Just found the forum and am loving it. I'm a novice rider, love the road and mountain. Just not much mtn close to home. I've worked in a bike shop for the past 4yrs( getting better at the derailleurs) can change a tube with the best of 'em. The bike shop closed Dec. 24th, am now working on my business plan to open my own shop. My brother will be the head wrench, since I still have so much to learn. I ride a 2003 Spec. Allez Vita, a 2004 Raliegh Retroglide, and still haven't decided on a mountain bike. I had a 15" Hardrock A1 spt., would like a xs womens epic. Just can't afford it yet.
Looking forward to talking with you all.
