Greetings from the Valley of the Sun
Where are you from?
- Arizona, USA
- 2017 Brodie Remus Flat, 2017 Pure Fix
- Since c. 1988, off and on
- Sure. My name is Brad, and as detailed above I've been riding as an adult since about 1988. Some years more than others and now I'm back in one of those "on again" cycles. My first grown up bike was a Trek 560 12sp. Bought it then trained for an MS 150 ride on a whim. I got hooked and ended up doing a lot of centuries and metric centuries as well as joining up with a bike club in my then home state of NJ. I left the Trek behind when I moved to Arizona. I had since converted it to a single speed and loved it, but I was travelling real light on my move out west so it did not make the trip. Got back into bikes again with the addition of my two single speeds. The Brodie Remus Flat for most riding, and the Pure when I want to get down in the drops.
Thanks!
