I've been a longtime lurker. I've used this forum as a resource numerous times and I think it's about time I make an account.
I am a 19 year old male, in Washington State, whose been commuting via bicycle for the last five years to work and school.
I used a department store mountain bike sophomore year of highschool that I ruined during the beginning of junior year by over-tightening an aluminum seatpost clamp.
It would be about 3 months before I found my Black All Pro on Craigslist for $50. I called her Black Betty and have been building her up ever since.
I'm super hyped to share what I've been working on with everyone even though it definitely doesn't compare to the amazing things you guys have been building.
Here's a list of my current bikes.
