Obligatory salutation
I stopped riding in 06 or so and now at 67 easing back these last few weeks. Still have my Trek 1400, 2200 and my favorite Lemond Arrivee, a Ti frame. There are nice places to ride near my current location, about 15 mi north of Clearwater.
What's with the new bikes? They look futuristic with molded frames and fat wheels and tires.
Formerly about a B, now an F but not for long. Nice to meet you.

I want to say thanks to the posters above. Appreciate it. Should be OK I still have much of the old stuff. As long as nobody pepper sprays me like the tour recently.
