Keep looking, they are out there.
I just spent a couple weeks in Chicago last month, and saw a bunch of lady's Sports locked up on the streets - nearly as many Raleighs and there were Scwhinns about town
the Tourists weren't as plentiful as the Sports type models, though
at the Chicago History Museum
from the saddle on Milwaukee
