Hello,
I am a 34 year old man that just started riding and have bought my first bike. Moved to Madison for a promotion and got ride of my aging car since parking is a giant hassle and I could walk to work. SO, I bought the bike to commute to Milwaukee and Spring Green from Madison. Got the bike from Craigslist and put a little more then I bought it for getting a shop to go over it.
I really liked the bike but I have a lot of learning to do and need to spend time riding to get comfortable riding.
Hope this forum can keep the bike running and me learning to ride better

Hi Jeff and welcome to the forum. We sure would like to see pictures of your bike.
People say I'm stupid and apathetic. I don't know what that means, and I don't care.

Re: Hello from a Total Newbie
Welcome to TMW, I recommend an MSF course to help you get some practical lessons on keeping two wheels on the ground. As to pics, they are always in demand by members, we love to see each others ride...
