Newly Restored 82' Bianchi Nuovo Racing

This bike was abandoned at one of my neighbors rental properties and she gave it to me. Turned out it was the right size so I decided to fix it ride it. A good friend of mine rides an 86 Bianchi which I would constantly urge him to upgrade on our rides but now I feel he is on to something with these old steel bikes. I rode it for the first time and can't believe how smooth it is.

I did the paint myself so please keep that in mind, it turned out okay but it certainly is not professional. The group consists of mostly Campagnolo Nuovo Record with Suntour Superbe brakes. I swapped out the stock 3T T.d.f bars for some Nitto Noodles.
