I picked up a '75 Motobecane Mirage recently from a guy that works next door for a 6-pack of Bud longnecks! ($7 in these parts... better than drinking that swill) It's old, rusted and very French, but it seems to have a promising future as a fixie conversion, and I can use the old Huret parts and barcons for something else eventually (keeping the perfect wienmann/dia-compe brakes). It was sitting out in the rain for months 10 feet from where I park and I never noticed it! Now to get the damned cotters out and find a good wheelset to replace the crap 27" steelies... (sorry no pics, broke the digicam a few weeks back)
