Hi all... New guy here and getting back into bikes. Last time I road was about 30 years ago and I'm now 48. I love all the retro looking and modded bikes, takes me back to my childhood. My wife and I moved to Pinellas Park, Florida from the Chicago area last April for warmer weather. (I am disabled and the cold Chicago weather has been tearing me up in recent years) Recently I decided what better way to see the town than on a bike. My son bought me a bike for Christmas/Birthday present, the La Jolla, and have been enjoying it ever since. Chose a cruiser for a more upright seating position over a mountain bike, my arthritic back can't take leaning forward for too long. Beats the heck out of sitting at home watching the grass grow. I am planning to buy another bike soon, the 29 inch Onyx, and slightly mod it. I just don't know if I want to keep the La Jolla to have 2 bikes or return it. But anyway, this looks like a great place to hang out when not riding and hope to learn a few things and make some new friends.
Before: With stickers
After: Without stickers & fenders (May put the fenders back on)
EDIT: I put the fenders back on, looks better in my opinion.
