On my commute home yesterday I spotted my first real live mixte! It was being ridden by another commuter (panniers and a utilitarian clothing selection :)). I craned my neck and saw a "c" on the frame but couldn't read the rest of the name. The rider started to look a little nervous so I stopped oogling and went on my way, but I just thought it was cool to see something and recognize it based on what I've learned here!

Sounds like a Centurion...did it look like this?

Just like that, fenders and all. It was a really cute shade of orange, too (my favourite colour - that's what made me notice the bike at first, then I did a double take and saw it was a mixte).
Next time I see it, should I chase it down? :D

I love my Centurion, it's a sweet ride.
Absolutely chase it down!
