Hello!

Hello All! I am Bill and am happy to be here. I am 57 yo and started riding abou a year ago on a mountain bike(Cannondale al1 lefty) and fell in love with it! Have since purchased a Cervelo S5 to ride on the road. I really love both of these bikes but can only ride the S5 for another 6 months or so. Had a pretty bad crash on the mtb. The C-dale can really take a HIT thankfully. It has no damage at all!Fractured L5 and compressed L6 and broke the tailbone in 2 places. Doc cleared me to get back on the roadie but said STAY OFF THE C_DALE!!!!! More than likely will be another 6 months or so. Am very grateful that I can get back on the Cervelo and enjoy some riding. Ordered 2 new winter kits yesterday so I can get at it! Great to be here.

Bill

Hi Bill,

Welcome to Bike Forums.

Thanks for the great pics.

I crashed a year ago landed on my head.

Decided to never do that again and bought a used trike.
