Back on my bike
After far too long away. Had a Giant Iguana back in college that I toured New England with. Growing up I rode around The Bronx on a beat up BMX. Like so many others got back during the pandemic. Bought and old Olmo, did a 80 mile 5000 feet of climbing ride, which I would not do again. Well not until my new ride comes - a steel Desalvo that should be here soon. Glad to now be part of this community. Great source of info!

Heh heh... my very first road bike is an Olmo. Would love to see a picture.
