I see a lot of stuff frome folks trying to see what its worth and anybody want it , A Lot of just Junk im sorry to say . Funny reading a few though , Sorry to make any ofenseve remarks . Possably some just have things laying about and want to get rid of it . I however ride an Old MKM Bike I built up with top gear a long time back and its still an excelent road bike and I wouldent trade it for anything out there today , As it rides as good if not better than most.I rode a new LeMond just a few days ago . Great bike to say the very least. But the diference between it and my trusty old 40+ year old machine was minimal at best.Things just do not change with the years that much its in the running gear and a good frame to produce that fwd motion that counts in the end..Perhaps im Old and stuck in my favorate spot out on the road @ 68 years old i can still put the miles on up and down the grades around here where im retired Bishop , Ca. taking a look just to see if there were any of Arthur Metcalfe's machines in the vintage spot...Didnt find any so suppose perhaps those that have them like me are still out there riding them . Hope So...Anyway..... Hay' G'Day All.....Frank............out
