Since it was pointed out - in a 7 year old thread that was dredged up - that there is no "Intro" thread for n00bs to the site, how about doing so here?

Hi, my name is Mathieu, and... I am a newb.
I used to race mtn bike 15 years ago.. now that I have a little boy, 5 months old, I need to get back in shape and to be honest, the precious quiet time it gives me is great !
Hi, my name is Kurt. I am a professional firefighter, amateur photographer and general bike nut. I spent the last few years working in a shop part time till the birth of my daughter who is now 9 months old. I have been cycling for almost twenty years now and like most have been on again off again with the bike. Now with my daughter I find it is a great way to get out and relax. It is nice to have a little quiet time. I really miss wrenching in the shop but the upside is I have lots more time for riding. Hope to get to know some of you and contribute to the forum a bit.
Hi, Kurt. Cycling is actually nice thing. It's even funner if we pedaling together with someone we love like girl friend, wife or kids. I'm new member here. So I hope you can share more things to let me know more about cycling.
I just got into cycling over the summer and i love it. I am starting young considering i am only14. I am open to any tips or suggestions just message me
Hi, I am an entertaining person looking to join clubs of people who like cycling and beer. I like grumpy people. They usually have interesting hobbies. I am pretty grumpy. Some people mistake me for a pessimist, but that is not the case. Maybe that is why I am grumpy.
I am a stay-home-dad, and biking with my kid is my favorite activity right now, otherwise I am pretty bored. I like (anti-)religious humor, off road sports, heavy metal, target shooting, and cooking. I drove diesel trucks for 5 years so I am glad to be back home a lot and on bikes. What a crappy job.
My name is Andrew. I buy bike stuff on the Internet and LBS. Trek bikes are ok with me. Cx bikes on MTB trails are fine, but don't get self righteous. Lance probabably is a doper and a jerk, but I still liked watching him win.

My name's Qat R. Bhoy and I'm a Trek addict. I've bought five, just got #6 under warranty and still have two in my stable. I'm now trying to wean myself off using BMC. I am also hooked on chamois cream and Lounge jerseys.
My cycling problem started off with a few harmless rides with friends, but has now has transformed into a daily obsession trying to find that next ride...
Hello all, I'm a neewb, oh I'm only kidding, been riding since 1982, but since I never raced, and never joined bike group, officially I'm a neewb. I just enjoy riding for the sake of riding, have no desire to race, or ride in a large group. I don't mind if that is what other cyclists enjoy doing, I just really enjoy going solo, kind of my own form of meditation, and recharge the old batteries after dealing with raising a family.
Started with a Schwinn at 7 in Pittsburgh. Ran in to some fellow on my first ride and been running in to things ever since. Now have a Trek hybrid and a 64cm Specialized Secteur Comp. I'm a Clydsdale. Used to just ride to work and the store now I try to ride 15 miles at 15 mph daily. Live in Central Florida next to a 15 mile (round trip) bike trail. Fun. Hi.
