Hello from Toronto

I have ended up at these forums countless times by way of google, usually trying to find out about a component or how to do something so I figured I should just sign up. There looks to be an overwhelming quantity of information and opinion on just about everything bike-related so I'm looking forward to getting to know the boards!

I live in downtown Toronto and have been riding for most of my life but just in the last year have really started to take an active interest in bicycles and cycling.

Right now I ride a 2009 Fuji Track with various upgrades and enjoy it quite a bit. Currently doing my homework to purchase a road bike come spring.

I will post up a pic of my ride soon.

I'll definitely check that out.

This is maybe the largest message board I've ever seen. Got a lot of reading to do!

my pleasure, you'll find all sorts of folks there. Shop ppl, ride ppl you name it. We've oddly become a semi cohesive group that actually does meet each other in some capacity or another. Met some good friends there.

Welcome, graphs.
You should know that as a new member, you'll be expected to participate in the MS Paint Your Mishaps thread. Failure to do so is frowned upon.

I'm going to have to choose which mishap to storyboard in Paint. So many to choose from!
