Howdy From Ohio

Corny title aside, I'm new to this forum. Being a member of this forum, I of course have in interest in cycling I'm just starting to get into it more seriously, but I've ridden and loved bikes since as long as I can remember.

My username reflects my other love in life, paintball, but I'm also into 3D illustration and animation.

Welcome to BF. What part of the state are you from? I'm south of Cleveland myself.

Sorry, guess I shoulda mentioned that . I ride road the vast majority of the time, but I've also dabbled into mountain. I have a Schwinn Super Sport right now, which in terms of road bikes is just about the lowest of the lower end, but I'm planning on getting a Trek 520 towards the fall. While I'd love to have it this summer, the whole college student budget just doesn't allow for such luxuries I've been riding quite a bit for the last couple months; I want to get in shape and ride the TransAm during the summer of 2008.
