Hi I am Smilyan from the UK
Hi, I love bikes!
I have recently completed two touring trips. One around Iceland last July and just came back from cycling around the Baltic states (interesting weather).
I am excited to join the forum and want to ask for some advice and learn from the knowledge of more experienced cyclists. Thanks!

Welcome Similyan. You have ridden in some interesting places - geographic and weather wise. Take a look at the Touring subforum here. I'm sure you'll immediately fit in.

Agree, Siu Blue Wind. Even those that don't frequent that area would love to see them. I'll be on the lookout!

Hi everyone, thanks for the warm welcome. I have a lot of photos, but am not allowed by the forum rules to share links yet, but soon!
Iceland is highly recommended, it is an absolutely gorgeous, out-of-this-world place to cycle. I loved every bit of it!
