Yep, the old Colnago will likely get a new coat of paint... or even powder, although there are threads on whether one should keep the wear as "patina" so I'm still considering. However, winter cycling is hard on it, so I wanted to get it off the road in the winter, and needed to ride something while I do a restoration (of sorts).
