back in the saddle
Hello, I'm Todd; just moved back to the city (Sq. Hill) after way too long in the suburbs and not really doing much riding while I was there. Looking forward to getting back into it and eventually commuting to work (Rt. 60 near Robinson) - still cringing at the thought of the hills on Steuben though...
I used to ride everywhere both for commuting and fun, did a couple MS150s back in the day. Still riding my trusty '93 Bridgestone MB-4 and still love it. Got out for a nice ride on the trails today, Panther Hollow->Sq. Hill was a bit rough but I kept cranking and made it home.

Nice to hear from a fellow Bridgestone rider. I have an early '90s XO-2 that I love dearly.
I often ride Squirrel Hill/Schenley/Frick, so if you see a slow rider on an old white Bridgestone, give a wave!

Thanks, it is good to be riding again and so far not as tough as I thought it would be.
Good to know there are other Bridgestoners still out there. I have to say, the XO's, I definitely didn't "get it" at the time but now I see the light - guess it was just ahead of its time... cool bike.
