Hi From Sarasota, FL

Greetings, all. I'm an old cat, 64-ish, getting back into bike riding after way too long of an absence. Need to bring the blood sugar levels down, so returning to biking.
I have an old Trek Lattitude that will be replaced soon with a new, more comfortable bike.
I'm looking forward to learning about all of the new innovations and changes to bikes that have come over the years.

Great area here for riding along the water. I'd like to get together and ride with others from the forum.

Welcome to Bikeforums, My wife and I (in our 70's) live and ride in North Central Florida. That said we spend a great deal of time @ Myaka River and ride there. Great spot. Enjoy the ride.

I'm not far from Myakka - nice, unspoiled area. After riding out there, I'm sure you could offer up some gator stories for those on another thread here!
