I love getting looks when I commute on my '85 Schwinn World Sport, modified to single speed, and complete wih a milk crate (and now flat bars with a riser quill and stem, although not pictured). Most people assume I'm not a serious cyclists, but the fact is, my "real" bike collection is probably costlier than most people's cars; I just don't want to bring out the "serious" bikes out for the commute. The bike is so practical and so ugly, nobody would ride it but me, and thats just fine!
