Where are you from,what do you do? - Page 310

Hey, Cycling community of the internet... Thought i'd register and introduce myself (been lurking for a while): I'm a student (computer sceince major) at KSU (Manhatta, Kansas). I'm currently not racing, but i'm thinking of getting back into it. Road or mountain is the question. I've done road in the past, but have been into mountain biking for a few years now. I'll see what happens *shrugs*.

I'm from Sedgley, between Wolverhampton and Dudley in the West Midlands, UK. I graduated from the University of Wolverhampton last year with a 2:1 Degree in Media Studies. I'm interested in walking and have done many wlks in my own area.

My name is Benjamin, I'm 17 years old, and I live in Jacksonville NC (USA). I've been intersted in cycling for over a year now, but I only just got my bike yesterday. For my first ride (this morning) I rode about 12 miles this morning, and I plan on doing the same thing every morning for the next three months. Since it was my first "real" ride this morning, it goes without saying the my crotch is pretty sore . For the future, I look foreward to the day that I'm able to ride in the MS 150 Bike Tour, but I probably won't this year. When I do, I'm riding the full 100 mile tour; No shortcuts for me!


As far as what I do is concerned, I'm unemployed at the moment. I hope to be able to hit the job trail soon. My hobbies include Bicycling, card magic and manipulation, Chess, the martial arts, and I collect glass bottles . Speaking of chess, if you want to play me, we can play on Yahoo messenger sometime. just add me (Walt_Whitmans_Ghost)! Any questions? Email me...

Hi, I live in Cape Town, South Africa. I'm an architectural vizualization artist, working for myself.

I want to get into cycling, to get fit and have fun. Still need to get a bicycle, propably a hybrid more for the road than off-road. I'm really keen on getting on a bike now, just terribly busy with some deadlines in my work for the next 2 or 3 weeks.

I grew up in a little univarsity town (Stellenbosch), where most people used to use bicycles to get around. As a kid I was very keen on bicycles. Always used to drool over some of the older guys' racing bikes. There were quite a few amateur and pro cyclist around.

Anyways, I'm looking forward to get some good info from you guys in future, hopefully one day actually contribute too!
