mid life crisis! Gonna Buy a new bike!

Greetings from the heart of fly-over country! I am a 54 year old guy from Kansas City looking for a midlife crisis to happen. Since sports cars are out of my price range I thought I would learn to restore old bikes. Looking for all the help i can get. Looking forward to learning from everyone here.

Neil, You came to the right place.
New bikes are fun to ride.

Look in The Classic and Vintage for help with old bikes

Howdy and welcome to the forums.

For my mid-life crisis, I learned to ride a unicycle. I told my wife it was cheaper than a Corvette.

For vintage road bikes, visit the "Classic and Vintage" subforum and folks there will know more than you can imagine. For old cruisers and the like, check there but also check out www.ratrodbikes.com and www.thecabe.com.
