From: Near the Mississippi river

Bikes: Riv Atlantis, Specialized Hardrock, old lugged bikes

My daily ride. The first is a red Peugeot Nice circa 1988, Reynolds 501. Niterider twin light with a Nashbar trunk bag & misc. blinkies attached. I hate the pedals but have been too lazy to replace them. I found this bike in a police auction shed. It had been there for at least 10 years and they gave it to me - free -. The gears and brakes worked perfect the first time, well, ok, the rear derailler needed a little adjustment. The tires were dryrotted and I replaced those.



The second is my foul weather bike. I've had this bike since 1991 when my wife and I bought 2 of them to ride to school. We rode them everyday for years to campus, then to work. I added the clips, Planet Bike fenders, and the rack. It's a solid bike and I still enjoy riding it although the Peugeot seems sweet now.



Cheers!
Duke
