Dang burn bike karma
A guy just dropped off a mint 1982 Trek 728 in my drive, all original, looks like it was never ridden, just storage scrapes, chainrings and freewheel untouched, flashing on the tires.
Karma.
Karma.

You must have done some seriously great deeds, especially if it is your frame size ...

Just make sure you hide it if the missus and you part ways........

It's the missus size. Should I cut her and gut her?
Check on the way, all good. I'll have to send you links to what fell into my lap in my size
Everyone else, pics maybe later tonite, if I have time. I did find one 50mm scratch on the toptube with a small one next to it, otherwise...is that mint in the air?

Folks are looking for 720s or anything close to them.
A nice example like this will be very attractive for the right rider/buyer.
Hard to find a bicycle this nice in that size.
Look at how clean she is!
