Dog,

I too used a 1965 Schwinn Racer with the two speed automatic hub to deliver news papers when I was a kid. As you well know there were not any bikes that gave you any gear options that did not require a hand shift. At lease I had a low gear while using my hands to throw papers. I actually used my christmas tips one year to buy the bike.
For the past two years I have been riding 4,000+ miles a year and am quite interested in bikes and would love to find that gold Schwinn racer to add to my collection.

Its good to know that someone else shared the same bike experience.

Jeff
