Everything old is new again
I think Rivendell started it. But it seems to have taken on a life of it's own.
You are seeing new bikes, sometimes very expensive bikes, that look as much
like old school bikes as they can.
Parts were a problem. but that problem seems to be going away.
Renee Herse cranks...
This isn't what I did. But I do like the looks.
I want to go on a tweed ride. Any idea where you find tweed?

Wish that bike had those shiny silver cranks, but otherwise... whew, very beautiful. What is it? I can't see the name, and I fail all "name this bike" games.
