Hi from Boston
I'm a California Bay Area native, Boston resident. I unfortunately don't know a whole lot about bikes besides that I like to ride em, so I'll probably be badgering a lot of you for answers to my questions! I hope you don't mind and will be gentle to this little newbie!
Thank you in advance!

Welcome to Bike Forums. Don't worry about asking questions here. Everyone is super nice for the most part. Kick back and enjoy the forums. Foo is a fun forum to check out. Alot of wild and wacky humor there.

Since the bike I have now is only on loan I'm looking into getting myself a new (to me) bike... though I love the ease of riding a hybrid I maintain a perverse obsession with road bikes. I rode my uncles old one when I was a kid but gave it back after I fell off and hurt myself. Since then Ive both admired and feared them.
