Greetings from the Netherlands!
Hello from the Netherlands, I already made some posts on the forum but havn't written an introduction yet. In the past I used to cycle a lot on a road bike, and commuted for years a lot of kilometers. Then I sold my road bike (think about 8 years ago) and got more into running. But now i want to get more into cycling again and I bought a new bike.

I have a goal of cycling to Paris from my home (about 700km), and I'm looking into brevet cycling, might sign up for a 200km first to have a shorter term goal.

Welcome to the forum. My grandparents all immigrated here from the Netherlands about 100 years ago. They rode bikes there back then, mainly for work. Hope you enjoy the forum and your new bike.
