what are old bike traits
If they are at my house.... old bikes find their way to Wahoo's Home for Wayward Cycles...I have about a dozen or so "good" bikes and about another dozen whatever people have dropped of along the way. And that doesn't include the badly damaged stuff that is in the recycle pile My tastes run to the utility side of things, my all time favorite bike is my 1972 Raleigh Superbe. The next one I ride the most is probably either my Redline 9.2.5 ( I know not vintage) or my 1968 Raleigh Compact RSW. The rest get ridden when the mood strikes or in some cases when the weather or conditions dictate.
