Hi from Rapid City, South Dakota
Hello everyone. I discovered this forum while researching my options for converting one of my bikes to an e-bike. I have a Cannondale Optimo and a Bike E recumbent. I was a bike messenger in NYC for 5 years in the late 80s and have maintained a love affair with bicycles since then. I'm looking forward to being a regular on here and sharing stories as well as picking up a few tips.

Hello and welcome. I'm from the other side of the state.

I was too young to go to bars in the 80s (barely) but got into the band scene in the 90s.

Six at the moment, but I'm going to sell the Panasonic in the spring. Probably should sell another couple too, but haven't yet brought myself to give them up. Three of them get ridden quite regularly. The other three, not so much.
