Isn't that part of the fun of having vintage bikes?

When I've brought a nice vintage bike with me into a shop I've been surprised by how many times the oldest guy in the shop (often the owner) will pop out of the service area to shoot the bull and reminisce about "the old days." Of course this works best if, like me, you're an old guy (or gal) too. My hat is off to you younger folks who are keeping the love for these old bikes alive!
