So I thought this was here already, still not sure, and obrentharris asked for more pics so here we go.

This was a CL find, that PO said he raced it for awhile and that it had been Greg Meekers training bike at some point when he raced out of Micheals cyclery in Ames Iowa.

It was built in 1986 by Micheal Bornstein at Strawberry where he worked for awhile, he built it for himself.

Its small for me but with the PDX connection I will probably keep it for a long time.
