Bikes: Bikes??? Thought this was social media?!?

C&V brought me to BF. At the time I had 2 vintage bikes and was amazed at you guys/gals that refurb & restore these bikes to "like new" condition. Since then I've acquired 4 additional vintage bikes, do a bit of work on them, ride them all, etc. Thanks to everyone for inspiration, advice, opinions and wonderful contributions.

Yeah, "the tubing sticker has fallen off my walker, and I'm wondering if it's butted or straight-guage. How can I tell?"

Baaah! Just ask the Orderly.

I got here by way of a google search for tall(larger than 64cm) bike frames. There were some threads with these large bikes that I never knew existed. It was nice knowing I am not he only freakishly tall rider out there.

BTW, this is the nicest most civil forum I have been on. The posters here a tremendous, give yourselves a hand.

I drank too much and fell into this forum when I googled "Ironman."
