- I only have one bike here as I've recently moved here from California, USA. I have a 2008 Velo Vie Vitesse 300. Very light frame (930g) and extremely stiff. Rolling on Mavic Ksyrium Elites, Ultegra 9spd group, Fizik seat, Alien Carbon Post, Bontrager race wing bars, Ultegra pedals and a Garmin Edge 305 GPS. It does the job. http://www.velovie.com/catdesc.php?cPath=1&categories_id=23&...

- I'm a 38 year old American new to Australia. I've recently gotten back into cycling and I've fallen in love with it all over again. I'm ready to start being challenged to pick up the pace.

I live in Pascoe Vale and would love to go for a ride! I would like to do the Hills in the Dandenongs if you like or ride down Geelong or Dromana.
Cheers.
Jonathon.

welcome to Melbourne Cyclist. I am sure you will find some riding partner's. I usually ride on my own for I just go out when I feel like it. Plus being in my late 50's most of the riding groups about my age only have very short rides with a break in between. (truth is, if I rode with a group they would show up how bad I am.)
Cheers, Jack.
