Ello from the bay
Hey y'all,
my name is N, I'm a messenger in SF and have been on the road since 05. I've got a bike hoarding and breaking problem (6'3" 210 pounds). Always looking for some cool Landshark, Italian road or track bike or crazy weird mtb!

Welcome. With your size and being a messenger, you must be putting down some good power. It’s tough for many frames to handle it.

Welcome from SoCal and a former NorCal resident. I have a Dolan DF3 track bike that I use for pursuit and sprints. There are several good track sprint bikes that are very solid and stiff. And check out the Hellyer Velodrome in San Jose they have beginner sessions Saturday morning.
