Hi From the Pacific Northwest
Just Joined today,
Been riding bikes since I have been 7. Started on a 1948 Raleigh Sports. Dad put wood blocks on pedals so I could ride. I rode that bike until High School. I then worked for a bike shop after school and thru my first year of college. During that time I owned a Raleigh Grand Prix and then a Raleigh Gran Sport. In 1962 I got my first custom order race bike a OLMO Deluxe SR E293 with custom wooden rims. After getting married I bought her a 1973 Raleigh International. To this day both bikes are still being ridden.
