Welcome Velocipedio hope you like it here.<br /><br />I'd like to hear how to solve some of the world problems, but right at the moment I'm a bit busy, still after I clean the bike I'd be happy to listen ;D

A few profiles here (Joe Gardner, Velocipedio &amp;amp; WorldIRC) are fake, as well as all posts are from thoes profiles. This is due to banning a member over at BikeForums.net<br /><br />Steve is aware of the situation, hopefully this wont harm the forums here. Sorry for the spam.<br /><br />~Joe (yes, the real one... ;D)

Thanks Joe.<br /><br />I wasn't sure, but the one mis-giving I had was the fact that Bikeforums wasn't down as your homepage on the profile.<br /><br /><br />Still I like it here and at Bike forums , see you later.

Hi<br /><br />I'm from Denmark and I enjoy riding to get some time away from the books. I'm trying my best to become a dentist, yeah I know, odd choice :-\ <br />I'm a roadie but when it gets really cold as it is at this time of year I take my mtb to the woods to find cover from the biting cold wind.<br /><br />cheers

I'm also from Dallas Texas. I work in cosmetics for an upscale dept. store. Went to school for business and fashion merchandising. I'm mostly into mountainbiking but have just started road biking to get miles in for racing. Are most of you roadies or mountain bikers? Lotek, I'm dont know if I can help with your problem, I'm not quite sure what Biltong is. I can guess but may be way off.
