Greetings from Portland, OR
Hello all,
My name is John and I live in Portland. I've lived in California and New York but haven't been as inspired to ride a bike the last few years as I have here in Portland.. I'm mostly interested in vintage bikes and currently have a Vitus and a Peugeot as the household bikes. Anyway, greetings everyone!

Hello, and welcome from Eugene.
There is an active vintage bike group in the Portland area. I rode up there for a short vintage ride a month ago.
Here was the thread from the last meet at velocult. Drop a note in the thread, and perhaps you'll make some new contacts.
