Another MA biker from the "Happy Valley"

Greetings. I'm looking for a new pad in which to hang out. I recently built up an older steel road frame and just love the ride. I like working on bikes almost as much as riding them.

Welcome to Bikeforums.

It sounds like you and I have a lot in common, along with many of the people over in the Classic & Vintage forum. Plenty of people over there like wrenching on vintage steel.

Thanks Little Darwin. I'll check it out. Love the name by the way - us 19th century folk need to stick together....

Hello Malthus, I am another lover of vintage bikes, and you will see my collection popping up here and there. What was the bike you just recently built up?

Photos?

The frame is a mid-90s Giant Perigee.

Do you have photos?

We don't see a lot of Perigees here...
