Hello from northern Ontario Canada

[Rode Warrior]

Just wanted to say a quick hello and glad I found your group. My name is Curtis and I live in northern Ontario Canada. I belong to Bicycles for Humanity a group that recycles bikes locally and ships excess bikes to Africa to promote local business and cycling there too. Also belong to our local Community Spokes bike repair shop at our local university. I collect more than I ride these days. Had 54 bikes but I've been buying less and donating many so the number is slowly coming down to approx. 34 right now. My interest is classic 50's-80's light cruiser bikes, mainly 3 speed Sturmey Archer style rear wheel but I also like coaster brake vintage bikes and balloon tire cruisers too. I have 11 road bikes but I'm slowly taking them to our local bike recycle till I get down to a more manageable number. Anyhow, thanks for allowing me to join and I look forward to gleaning plenty of valuable info here as well as sharing a few tales too.
