Hi everyone. I’m new to this forum. But it’s great from what I see. I’ve ridden all my life. Did some Touring before my injuries caught up to me about 5 years ago. Got into ebikes after back surgery a couple years ago so I could still enjoy the lifestyle.
I’m a retired firefighter, retired race car mechanic, and retired bicycle mechanic. Used to ride dirt bikes in what they call Harescrambles and Enduros.
I’m 60y/o and just got my wife of 39 years to finally ride with me since she got an ebike. Yay!
I have a lot of experience in bicycle repair, and setup. Along with custom work. I build my own battery packs and do custom conversions as a hobby. I worked at 5 different bike shops in my early years but have been involved in the sport all my life, and evolved with the newer technologies. I’m also getting setup with Velotooler to do some local mobile bicycle repair work.
The types of riding I do are: MTB, Touring and Liesure. I’ve have a Bafang BBSHD kit that’s been in the box for 3 years that I need to put on my GT Force 3.0. I just haven’t been too motivated to do Mountain riding since back surgery. But I’m getting in better shape again. So hopefully soon. Hope I don’t break my neck. HaHa
Any retired Brothers in Fl want to ebike ride give me a holler.
