Hey Bike Forums.
I’m a bike enthusiast on a college kids budget. Seems fitting for life right now. Ramen and bikes. I fell in love with biking when I was in high school, solidified my passion when I bike packed a couple hundred miles, and here I am today.
I joined the bike forums because I’ve been lurking for years on the bike mechanics forum, but now currently spend most of my time roaming the vintage stuff. I’m trying to build up some vintage bikes and the community has been such a great learning tool for period correctness and general knowledge.
My few rides.
1980’s Fuji Tiara Cherry Web - I thank Khatful for introducing me to such a beauty. 1990’s?? (Still don’t know the year) cannondale alumimum 3.0 campy’d. Beater fixed gear studded tire bike w/ seized seat post.... 2007 Specialized Crosstrail, 2016 specialized Allez Comp, 2017 Specialized Fuse Comp 27.5+ (Worse purchase decision of my life next to a sram equipped specialized AWOL comp... SRAM is bad)
Okay. That’s pretty much me. I have more bikes than I do years on this earth. O.o
