Out of shape guy in Florida

Hi Y'all,

Just came across the forum while looking for a good home for a Trek 610 rd bike. So I guess I should be nice and say hi while I'm here!

I don't have a lot to say at this point in time, which is really not like me. It's been so long since I have been able to ride that the saying "if you haven't done it in ten years, you haven't done it at all" really does fit me in here. I can't recall any of the parts I had on my Trek, etc. That really is sad.

I can't believe that I used to log hundreds of miles a year and even continued to ride everywhere after buying my first car and now I'm in here trying to find a home for that bike. Well, one of these days I'll be back on my feet and will be out there getting into trouble once again.

Have a great day!

SirDude

It's always tough to get back into a sport after being out of it for a while. Have you thought about taking up cycling again?

Hi,

Yes, I would love to be able to ride again, I tend to ride my Mtn. Bike more due to the streets, trail condictions where I live, but if I lived a little farther south it's all road bikes and smooth streets.

But right now I am dealing with recovering from a surgery and other health problems that really put a damper on doing any of the sports I use to do. I hate to sould like so many other people, but "one day" I'll be back on the road.

Thanks for the thought,

SirDude
