Denver bike junkie.
I'm a 35 year old male - just turned 35, today's my birthday. I transplanted to Colorado from the East Coast 10 years ago. A few years ago I lost my drivers license, which rekindled my childhood love of bicycling. The bus sucks! I ride a Trek 2200 road bike (aluminum frame, carbon fork, Shimano Ultegra/105), but lately I've been spending more time on my Trek Fuel EX7 (aluminum full suspension frame, hydraulic disc brakes) mountain bike. I also have a Cannondale F300 (solid aluminum frame, headshok) that I am rebuilding. I broke my femur (thigh bone) the day before Thanksgiving, and was riding my bike within days of being able to walk again.

Hello lincolns2, you should have a number of fellow Coloradans descending on you before too long, so I'll just make it brief:

Welcome to bikeforums. YIKES how did you break your Femur??? Was it a bike accident??
Anyhoo, check out the regional forum under Mountain-Plains. There are some other Denver people to hook up with.
I too ride both road/mtb.
Take Care
