Hello from Berea, Kentucky
I finally decided to join after obsessing over the Show us your MTB with drop bars thread in the Classics and Vintage section. This looks like a good place to be. I started riding seriously in 1991 after graduating from college. I kept saying that a canoe or a bike was going to be my first big purchase. Still have not bought a canoe

Thanks for the welcome, 10 Wheels. I grew up in Louisville and moved to this part of the state in 86 to go to school. I fell in love and decided to stick around. A lot of nice riding around here except for days where I would like to avoid hills.

My folks came from the Vanceburg area.
Grandfather learned to swim in The Ohio River when his big brother tossed him in.

Welcome aboard beicster, from another C&V denizen. Avoiding hills in Kentucky? Hmmm, isn't that called Mission Impossible or some other head banging experience? Good to have you here with us.
