My first saved from the dump find...

Taking one of my normal shortcuts through an alley, I see two bikes propped up against the industrial garbage bucket behind the mall. One's a run of the mill step-through Schwinn World Tourist, but in the same color and decals as my 2010 Schwinn Madison.
The other one is a smaller frame than i use, but looks like some very nice components. Its a Houdaille Custom with the strange powercrank set up. And it looks like all it needs are tires, chain and a good cleaning and greasing.

I had to "save" them! Pictures to follow.

New Problem: the wife just counted how many bikes I had the other day.... so I may have to sneek these in late at night.
