New to posting threads, but not new to cycling

My name is Ken. Just turned 54 and recently bought a new bike. Now I own seven of them. I have taken great bike trips in and out of New York. I just love to ride. My favorite bike is my 1992 Bridgestone RB-1. My second is a 1980's ( don't recall exact year ) Univega Speciallisma. It is unique because the name "Speciallisma" is upside down on the top tube. Still have my first real 10-speed. A green 1975 Fuji S10-S. Also have a 1972 Raleigh International. Started with a frame and built up with a variety of parts. I have a Diamondback Sorento Mnt. Bike and a Nishiki Backroads. Just bought a 2010 Specialized Allez triple.

New to posting threads, but have been reading them for awhile.

Welcome Ken. Stop by the 50+ forum and say hello to the "old timers".

Ask the folks in the Road Cycling or General Cycling forum for advice on a new road bike.
