I am pleased that there seem to be more Fujis on the ground out here, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that spring cleaning will bring out some worthwhile examples.
I'd been lurking here for a couple of years and finally joined because I was desperate for a replacement Helicomatic and @Frogbutter had a listing I couldn't pass up - had to setup an account to get it. Over the years, I've seen one or two others around the area, none exactly come to mind, I think one has a nickname starts with a J and has some numbers in it?

If you weren't way the hell up there I'd say, "let's go grab a beer if that's your thing!", but instead I'll say, "if you're not strictly a spandex pack warrior on a mission, there's some fun, casual no-drop weekly rides in town which normally start up at Loose Nuts Cycles in Grant Park". This is one of the recent routes: Loose nuts intown loop - A bike ride in Atlanta, GA - it's a great exposure to the gamut of in-town neighborhoods, and there's plenty of places to grab a beer after. Beltline is almost here... There's going to be major connectivity through it and I expect a lot more riders in town when it finishes.

PS - I just picked up a mid-70s Fuji Dynamic 10 (I think) a few days ago near the Cabela's shop off I-75 (Acworth-ish). More info: http://www.bikeforums.net/classic-vi...l#post18389967
