When i was a kid I never had much really trick biking kit, now that I can, I started by collecting those unobtainium vintage items, Cinelli, Masi, BSA I thought I wanted it all baby, and you know what (???) after starting I realized that the community was more important than the actual "hard to find-rare-highly collectible" item. What played today was incredible music, it was the sound of "our community" discussing how we keep the dream alive.

This was a great day !!! Wayne ( just another bike rider looking for some decent riding weather with some friends) Jolly, Toronto
