I try to go camping whenever possible, but I'm not a bear, I don't poop in the woods.

Other than the state highways, just about every road out here is unpaved, so my go-to rig atm is this little dirt machine. After putting around 15k on it, I'm almost ready to replace the frame, fine-tuning a few things I've found myself thinking about as I dodge deer and turkey through the forests.




Welcome! That's a really nice looking bike. Looks like it might fit me as well if you're ready to turn it loose for a new build.

Recently joined the forum after moving to the US, so let me "formally" introduce myself :-). Looking forward to connect on riding in the US and the (vintage) cycling scene in general

* real name - Marty
* where do you live? - Recently moved to Portland, Oregon. Lived in Busan, South Korea for 7 years, originally from Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Great riding in all those places
* explanation of your handle - "mev" was my acronym at work, and stuck as a nickname.
* age (general or specific) - 48
* occupation - Project Manager/Engineer in the Footwear Industry
* favorite bike - Wraith Hustle
* what's in your stable?
- Wraith Hustle - Columbus Life, Campagnolo Chorus 11
- 90s Concorde Prelude - Columbus SL, Dura Ace/Ultegra/105 mix
- Giant XTC hardtail - almost stock
- Trek 850 commuter conversion
* fastest speed on a road bike? - Korea has vey steep hills :-)
* how many miles ON THE ROAD on a road bike last year? - 3k maybe? too little...
* Recent Adventure - Riding in various parts of Asia has been fantastic. Cycling is the best way to explore new places. Taiwan is the most amazing country for cycling, and still somewhat of a hidden treasure.
* How did you find the paceline Forum? - Have been following over the past 10 years, only now I took the effort to join
