My '64 Legnano Roma Olympiade, had since new. It was my race bike as a junior racer, my college commuter, did some local touring, then hung on the garage wall for 20+ years. What was I thinking? In 2000, I turned 50, got it down from the wall, and we have been enjoying the miles and smiles together again. Been thru two Eroica rides. On the way home from this year's Eroica I acquired a 1961 Gran Premio from a nice BF member, so now the Roma has a little brother. Both great rides.

Ready for this year's Eroica.

Resting at the Eroica turnaround.

Legnano reunion following Eroica.

Such a sweet deal that the Gran Premio qualified for the $100 Clunker Challenge. 100Km completed at the May Rose Bowl Vintage Ride.
