Spent a wild, crazy and dirty weekend with my Garin, and after all of the terrible things I said about her now we are in love. Where once I saw warts, now I see beauty marks. Wine was consumed, promises were made and incredibly heavy Solida cranks and BB were exchanged for French threaded Zeus and Dura Ace. Burned all of her old clothes and gave her new ones. Her bars were so pretty under the weird blue foam that I decided to leave them bare, also because I only had one roll of blue tape. I don't think her lugs are real (there doesn't seem to be any brazing material) but they are pretty enough and I am too polite to ask. Can't believe I had everything on hand to complete my Belle du Jour, but here she is in all her faded glory. Unknown age Garin Tour Olympique:
