Where are you from,what do you do?

Since 2001, over 90,000 cyclist's have joined Cycling Forums to discuss topics from general cycling to equipment, training, racing and travel or vacation destinations (especially in europe during the tour de france). We also feature an great deals in our online store, 100's of articles, classifieds and product reviews.

Where from: I live in Frankfort, IL which is about 35 miles south of downtown Chicago, IL.


What do I at the day job: Day job is an Attorney. I do primarily tax law and the usual stuff like real estate, corporate, wills/trusts and business law. Since my office is 1.5 miles from the house, new bike and inline skates are in my future.


Other than that, I ride as much as possible and do several organized rides in IL, IN and Michigan. I am currently looking at upgrading from my TREK 2200 to a Litespeed Ghisallo.

Hi CyclingForum,

I'm from Southern California. I work as an engineer.

Where- NYC, NY USA

What Do I Do- Not much according to some... I am a Stay At Home Dad (SAHD... isn't there an abbreviation for nearly everything these days?!?!) but prior to my wife and me starting our family I was (and perhaps someday still might be) a professional jazz musician here in NYC. :o

The computer says that I need to state where I am from and what I do..... I am from my mother and since that fact what I "do" is cut her grass and fix her house.:mad: Wish I had more time to ride.

Real Estate broker and Invester from Hattiesburg, Mississippi. Seven bikes and about to add a tandem recumbent so my little girl and I can ride with my wife on her EZ trike. Road rider mainly, some mountian biking....and Datona as in Campy, Daytona 10 speed, good stuff. Can I get campy to fit that Sun EZ tandem???:rolleyes:

So there!

I am from Indiana and recently started cycling in July, and love it.
When I'm not cycling I am a hospice nurse. I really hope to get some get cycling tips and befriend some cyclist. :cool:

What's up? This is my first day as a member ( and my first post).

I reside in the Alleghany Mtn range in Northwest Pennsylvania USA (WARREN,PA).

I'm a department head for a Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep auto franchise. Oh yeah we got HEMIS :D

I'm a CAT2 road racer coming off of a 2 year layoff. I have 2800 miles on since July and I can finally feel the legs come back.

I look forward to the imput of the users of this site and will share any knowledge I have of our unique sport/lifestyle.

ey! am from Negros in the Philippines, based in Manila. try to trail at least twice a week w/ my buddies...trail rides anywhere from 19-45 kms each in what's mostly a hot & humid environment during the year. sometimes we do road rides, anywhere from 50-110 kms, but very rarely ;)

got into mt. biking to gain some control over my weight, and to get away from the madness of the city...15 months into it and loving it! i ride an '04 specialized enduro and an SJ M4 ht...can't get enough of them :D

more power to everyone here!

I am Dave, 40 years old, Registered Nurse from Adelaide, South Australia. I would love to ride more than I do, 2 young children do take time ! I ride in the beautiful hills surrounding my home.

Born is Puerto Rico (Ponce) grew up in Chicago now in Aurora, Illinois USA

I am a Network Engineer who just bought a NRS2 2004.5 1 month ago after 15 years of not riding. Coming back strong also will restore my 1982-83 Schwinn Voyager SP its not in bad shape at all.

I'm from a very small town in Southern Illinois, I am an Administrative Assistant for the General Manager of a family owned telecommunication company. Started riding a road bike 2 months ago with my husband (he's been a rodie for a year and a half), so far I'm really enjoying it, would love to do a ride/vacation sometime.

I'm from Dallas/Ft. Worth, Texas. I own a small pro audio/video production company. I just got into cycling after not really riding since I got my drivers license 14 years ago. My legs hurt!

2004 Trek 6700

Hey people,

I'm in Tarzana, California at the moment. I don't actually do much currently exept ride. I installed hardwood flooring for 17 years until my table saw turned
on me and ripped through my left index and thumb. Ah, State disability.
Now i live to ride and ride to live.

Have many friends there Petey?

You Americans make me piss my pants. Who gives a shit what you do for a living, and whether you can drive or not? I'll give you some advice just keep riding and training until your legs don't pain you. Then go faster until they pain you more, then turn Pro and mind and pain begin to live with each other. See which one gives way first, in your case I'll bet you don't get past the first lamppost so stop and have a piss on it.If you go back and start reading the thread from the beginning you'll see that it wasn't the Americans who started adding their occupations and other miscellaneous tidbits to their posts. So you should blame your parents instead of Americans for your lack of toilet training.

Um...the thread is titled "Where are you from, WHAT DO YOU DO?"

Just thought I'd answer the question. Sorry to take precious moments out of your day. Please tell me there are friendlier and smarter people that hang out around here.

Sheesh.

Hey Bullshit. Who do think you are fooling? A second Cat after a lay off. As far as I know you have to keep up results to keep your Cat. If that was the case I'd still be able to have my Pro license now at the age of 60. As for your mileage it averages out at more than 700 a week while you have a full time job. Go back on the drugs boy. Walter Mitty are you?Not only are you not toilet trained you can't do simple math worth a crap. If the op meant since beginning of July that's 175 miles per week, if he meant since the end of July it's about 233 miles per week. Either way sounds possible to me for a Cat 2 racer. Hell, I'm a 40 year old who works 60 hours a week and commutes on a mountain bike and I average about 120 miles per week. You need to take a freaking chill pill.
