Ah, mine was brilliant. Temp about forty-one, partly cloudy. Had bought an old Peugeot UO-10 (1976 model, I think) from a local thrift for thirty five dollars and spent last week overhauling and cleaning it, replacing the chain, all bearings, cables and housing, truing and redishing the back wheel, new tires and tubes, etc. I think it hadn't been ridden much, but had been left uncared for for a looong time. Nice stronglight cranks, normandy hi-flange hubs, etc, etc... finished today, tooled it around the neighbouhood, tightened up and re-adjusted a few minor things, and decided to ride it in. It was a joy. I think it's now my dry weather commuter. I'll keep my other commuter for wet weather and night rides-- it's far better equiped for those conditions, but not as nice a ride.

To think when I first saw this bike I was gonna buy it to part it.
