Retired / winters in FL / summers in NC
 
Hi. I am in my second childhood, devoting my life to sports. I live in east central Florida in the winter and western North Carolina in the summer. I have been cycling all my life. Reached a peak when I rode to and from work every day plus many miles on the weekend. I am getting back into it now. I have 4 bikes; a Cannondale touring modified for city riding, a Strida that I am electrifying, a Currie, and a Giant ATB. Mostly I ride the Cannondale, but only about 30 miles a week.

Tennis is my main sport. I play 4 or five times a week, and play in leagues and ladders.

Life is good, the water in the winter and the mountains in the summer. I look forward to more riding and more messing with my wheels

Hi Jim. We've got a bit in common. My main sport was Tennis up until a couple of years ago when biking took over my life. I was even the President of our Tennis Club for a few years. I played in a doubles league and a singles ladder for years. Now I get much more enjoyment out of biking on the weekends in the countryside and commuting to work once the weather gets a bit better. Not sure if I'm even going to renew my tennis membership this year.

Enough about me :lol: Welcome to Bike Forums.

Hi Jim! Tennis is nice, but you can't commute by playing tennis :lol: . I always found that I got more exercise from retrieving the balls that I hit over the fence :o . I really was inept. Cycling, I am ept :D .

Welcome to BikeForums, and don't hesitate to send me a PM if you have any questions.
