Howdy from Kentucky

Howdy all, I'm Shay from Kentucky. Haven't been on a bicycle in..30 years or so I think, but looking into getting one both for exercise and just to putter around town. Cheers!

Shoot, you're right up the road. I lived in Lexington from birth in 1967 to 2006 then moved to Nich Vegas. Now I go up there and can't find my way around because they've moved everything and taken out all the streets I knew. Last December i got lost trying to take Reynolds Road from Clays Mill and realizing it's gone. Yoinks!

Thanks, glad to be here. And yeah, hills describes most of the state with some choice involved- it gets flatter out toward the western tip, and the farther east you go the hillier it gets.
