Want to introduce myself: I hail from St Cloud, MN for the last 25 years. I rode fairly seriously into the mid to late 80s but hung the bikes up until about two years ago. I got busy with the kids and their hockey (youngest is playing D1 college, senior year) as well as motorcycle touring. I'm back, losing weight and loving it. I also work part-time in a great LBS as a wrench and sales. (attended Barnett Bicycle Institute (BBI) about two years ago)
I ride anything with two wheels. I have a Cannondale Synapse Carbon with Ultegra, a Cannondale Caffiene 2 Mtn bike (lefty fork), two Surly Cross Checks one geared and one SS and also a Surly Pacer. The newest addition is a Salsa Mukluk (wife and I both) for winter. Next bike will probably be a SS rigid Mtn bike of some flavor.
I'm fortunate that my wife shares my passion for both bicycles and motorcycles as well as my son. It's not cheap when three involved, but it's easier to get things that way.
