Umm yeah, I like Nikes and Metal (well, lots of music) too. I'll soon be loving bikes.
Welcome to the Forums. I'm a native of Michigan and learned to appreciate the cycling lifestyle there in the 1970's so I always like to say Hi to Michigan cyclists. I notice that most Michiganian Introductions are from the state, rather than a town as the location, though the Detroiters are usually from "Metro Detroit," but also not otherwise specified. So more specifically where are you from and what kind of riding do you do? (I'm from the East Side of Detroit, and was a tourist for a long time, now a year round commuter and occasional centurian here in Boston).
