Good morning all.

Allow me to introduce myself, I am gofasterstripes!

I have been lurkin' for a couple of years, and I was shocked to notice that non-subscribers can now become forum members. Hooray! So here I am.

I am late twenties, and Cornish, though I now live in Bradford, [of all places for a southerner] where I am studying Product Design at the Uni.

I haven't been out on my bike much for the last year+ and I very-much want to change that. Before this I rode on a cycle tour for 8-odd months of NZ [most of it, amazing], Oz. [interesting in parts but horrible to cycle in for the main], Bali and Lombok [hard-sell tourist central, but stunning].

My current bikes are:
**Blue Pig Mk1 [fully built by me, including wheels]/Pike Coils/XT/XTR/321D/Pro2/Louise BAT/DMR/Easton/RaceFace/"Not named Yet"

**Thorn Raven Tour/Rohloff/XTR/Ridiga Carbide/XT/XTR/Stock/"Agnes"

And awaiting work to ride [not had money in a while]:
**Globe Centrum 3-speed "No. 6"/"The crash machine #1"
**531C/Suntour Downtube/Mavic/Shimano/Shimano RX100/Cinelli --Darksider-- "Jezebel" [AKA "The crash machine #2"]
**Tandem of some age maybe circa 1930/6-speed Sachs retro-fitted/Wolber/Sachs/Winneman/Dunno/Dunno/etc [eerk - I forget, not rolled in a few years]

I class myself loosely as a somewhat daring trail rider, but as you can see I just want to get out in the sun. I would love to hear from people local to the area for rides soon, though at the moment I am not swimming in free time.

I am also very interested in IT [especially hardware - I build my own PC's, and game a bit] and music/Hi-Fi/Vinyl [though I can't play!] and house rabbits [2 big-eared troublemakers reporting-in].

I know a few of you from your posts, but this is a formal "Hello!"

GfS

PS - Quite a geek 🙂
PPS - I hope the width-issue fixes itself after posting...

Sorry about the lack of real drums!

Will check that out, thanks.

Hello mamadirt!
