Rediscovering the joy of cycling
G’day from Australia
Late 80’s early 90’s tri-athlete here. Knocked up a lot of Km’s before getting knocked off a few times.
I have recently dragged my 1986 Miyata 710 out of the garage and giving it some love and care. Went looking online for a bit of background on my bike and it has sparked a genuine interest in cycling and vintage bikes. My wife is about to become a cycling widow and she doesn’t even know it.
looking forward to trawling through these forums.

Thanks
Thanks for the warm welcome.
I picked up my refurbished bike from the bike shop yesterday. They have done a great job. I will post some pics over the weekend.
