Oldest or most unique commuter
Hello,
I can't help but be curious, but who out there thinks or knows they have either the oldest or most unique commuter bike?
Thanks,
-Bill

I just gave away a 1972 Schwinn Varsity. I ride 21 miles round trip to work 3 to 4 days a week. The cassette was starting to make the chain skip a lot. It was more cost effective to buy a new bike. The bike was heavy and it was a pain to shift but I really enjoyed it. My uncle bought it new and we had been swapping it back and forth every couple of years since the early 80's. I gave it back to him when I upgraded to a Specialized commuter bike.
