Yup I know the feeling Marty, I wish I had a dime for all the dry runs I've made. I think I was overdue to find something interesting. This particular store props all their bikes against the front wall/window (it was an old grocery store), it's kind of like a drive- thru to check for any thing new.

This is the first time I've stopped the car there this year.
stumpjumper: I'm going to replace all the balls in the hubs, hs, bb, repack and clean up, adjust, etc. Then I want to ride it some, however it is not really my frame size, I ride a 21 inch frame and this is about 22 1/2 inches. I can just barely stand over the top tube.

When it is all spanky looking I might see what it is worth. Dunno for sure yet.
