HI EVERYONE! Glad to be here! My name is Nathan and am looking to make some new cyclist friends on here. Feel free to add me. I used to ride mountain bikes a lot when I was in my late teens, but kinda got out of it as I got older. So, I recently got back into riding about 4-5 months ago when I finished building my new ride.
I still have my old GT mountain bike, but this time I wanted to try something a little different. So, I decided I wanted to build a road bike about a year ago and slowly collected the frame and parts. I bought an old late 80's raleigh 10 speed at a yard sale, stripped it and put all new everything on it. It's now a single speed freewheel. I was riding it fixed for a little while, but there are too many hills in my town to not be able to coast and rest every once in a while. haha I still flop it to fixie now and then when I'm feeling squirrelly.
