Just wanted to say hi and let those already here know what i'm up to. i live in the mtns and love to bike as much as possible year round. i have several bikes, a yeti 575(my bread and butter bike), an old motobecane(mostly a commuter), a 50's i think western flyer(my newest project), and a giant yukon(with studded tires for winter commuting). i found this site by accident looking for tips on restoring my old w/f and my girlfriends 70's schwinn. i can't wait to get into these projects this winter. i look forward to getting some pics posted and getting some feedback on the bikes and my work. good luck with your winter projects. -matt
