I would have grabbed the rack and bags off the Blue Rampar and would have left both bikes also.
I hear you, however, years ago, they would definitely been on their way to The Old Shed. These days, I much prefer to have one or two (or three is one is three thousand miles away) nice bikes that sport old school technology. At one time, my stable exceeded eighteen keepers and approximately 150 not keepers. Today, my Legnano Grand Premio from the late sixties and the Torpado. However, I did drag three not-keepers home, two of which are definitely on their way to the dump (no room to store), Two old Peugeots (soon to be gone) and one old Raleigh Carlton that just might hang around for a while...
As for the Torpado. I was going to go to the city today, to align drops and derailleur hanger, but forgot that Mrs. Me had a doctor's appointment, so my true up the frame will have to wait. Guess I will finish harvesting the components of the two old Peugeots before I take them back to the dump, the rims of this one, however, will find their way onto the Torpado...
This one has little to offer, in my opinion, as a bike, but will fill a box with worth while components. The rest goes to the dump on Wednesday...
