What is the value of this Bianchi?
My father has a Bianchi bike that was purchased in (1994?) and hasn't been risen a single time.
I'm going to college and want a bike since my school is out in the country and I want to get into biking I think... I weight lift regularly but jogging is hard on my knees.
I know absolutely nothing about it or biking in general. But it's in a cool looking turquoise color and it says "super set II" on a logo.
I can snap a picture if anyone needs more info.
Would this bike be good to use in Iowa? Should I sell it and purchase a newer bike? Should I not ride it and let it gain value?
Thanks guys.

We need pictures of the bike. A lot depends on what kind of riding you want to do. Celeste Bianchis are generally pretty cool bikes and there is no reason why it can't be very good for riding in IA.

+1 on the above
For my daughter I got a a cheap beach cruiser, just like everyone else has. Less likely to be stolen and if it is stolen, no problem. She has a giant road bike and a celeste bianchi cruiser but these would get too much attention. Celeste bianchis get noticed.
