Newbie at bike riding

Hi!

I just started bike riding recently, had I known it was so much fun I would have started ages ago. I don't have many friends that are avid riders and I have so many questions about my bike! (lovely red schwinn, 10 speed) I live in Portland OR and I am a full time student

From: Anaheim California

Bikes: Cannondale R700, Custom Cannondale Fixed, Research Dynamic Mountain Bike

I'm new to the Forum too, but I've been riding for 15 years. I also don't have too many friends who are cyclists. I learned a lot of things about cycling and building bikes from trial and error or out of necessity. Good luck, and biking is a great way of life!!

Bikes: Nishiki Nut! International, Pro, Olympic 12, Sport mixte, and others too numerous to mention.

Hello raspberryroof, do you have photos of your Schwinn? Do post some photos in the Classic & Vintage forum--we love photos and Schwinns over there .

Also, check into the Pacific Northwest regional forum, and say hi to the locals.

Welcome to BF, and feel free to PM me with any questions !

Thanks! I really love it, I go out almost everyday, not riding main roads yet but hopefully soon. My big plan is to keep on riding and one day participate in a triathlon.
