New from Treasure Coast
Just reintroduced myself back to this sport after a hiatus of 20 years. Semi retired and, needing to get rid of some weight, started scrounging around for a set of wheels. Being 6'7" made it a bit of a challenge. I think a got lucky, just bought a Schwinn off of craigslist. It is a rather minty 1981 Super Sport with a 25" frame. All it needed was a set of new tires. It came complete with both racks and panniers.

Nice looking ride, Schwinns are overlooked by way to many not understanding they not only have bikes at Walmart but also a very nice line of highend bikes. Being so tall it must be difficult finding a suitable ride without going the custom route. I'm not nearly as tall and I also ride a 25" bike, the Moto pictured below.
Where on the Treasure Coast do you live? I recently moved from Port St. Lucie (where I lived for 36yrs) to N.California.
