Hello
I found these forums while looking for ways to lock panniers to a bike. Looking around, it seems like a pretty nice place! I've been hanging out in the bike communities on another social site, so the positivity and manners I've seen here are making me swoon 
.
I own a Trek Verve 1, an Aventon Aventure Ebike, and a 60's beach cruiser rescued via estate sale that needs some lovin'. I also have two grungy bikes as yard art.

Hello BarbarianDiva, I was born in Rockford Memorial Hospital in 1952. I lived in Loves Park area until I was 23, when I moved to Ocean City, Md in 1976. I have lived just across the state line in Delaware since 1984. Still have some family in that area and I visit occasionally, last time in 2019. It is just about as flat here as in central Illinois.

A little late, but welcome to bikeforums, Diva. ✌️ I saw Rush at the Rosemont Horizon, back in the '80s, when they were peaking. I mostly don't remember Chicagoland though, I was drinking pretty heavily, back then, lol. 🙄😉
