Welcome to Spokes

This blog is about bikes. It's written by a newcomer to cycling.

I don't understand gear ratios and I don't own anything made of Spandex. I don't ride with sponsors' logos on my clothes and my most expensive bike cost no more than dinner for two at a nice restaurant.

Future posts here will showcase the bikes I own as well as some I wish I owned. Along the way, I hope to share some of the fun of casual riding and maybe deliver a few sermons about the beauty of lugged frames and the practicality of the city/commuter bike.

I also hope to learn more about bikes, accessories and riding -- so your comments are welcome and encouraged.
