No admission fee necessary! Just try not to mutter, "Is this guy crazy, or what?" or (which is more common) "Wait until I tell my wife/spouse/partner; and she thought I have too many bikes."

Don't presume it's ugly and unappreciated just because of that photo. Well, actually, the '71 International is pretty ugly with lots of corrosion and a few dents to add to the worksmanship, but it's one of the best riders of the fleet. I was on it today to head to a distant grocery store. In fact, I like the Raleigh International so much that I currently have three of them (including the '74 frameset, which I got from Scott in exchange for some choice Fuji-esque parts).
