Just in time for the 4th, I picked up this Super Prestige. Probably moving it along due to fit, but thought I'd share first.

I am currently visiting Vancouver on the eve of Canada Day, so I'll keep the chant on the down low. That is sweet though. Would make a nice companion to the Italian colors one on eBay/Austin CL

I am all set for Fourth of July parades, at 10:00 in my son's neighborhood and at 3:00 in mine.
I even bought my Team USA red-white-and-blue KOM-10 from a San Diego firefighter.

I love the photo wall behind the bike as well. That's a really clever idea. Why keep photos in an album, or on your phone, when you can enjoy them everyday?

Not C&V but I decided to go for the Patriotic scheme. I also have stars and stripes kit from Voler to go with it as well as white shoes.

I recall probably '91 ish and a friend purchased new from Ritchey. There's was some funny but pestering conversations exchanged, believe Ritchey nearly had enough of my friend. Anyways, it was a knockout and especially how kitted. We rode the same frame size which was fun for trading on rides. Friend was relentless about my 'plastic' Kestrel CS-X...
