Oldsledz

I have started my 2nd clunker this year it is a older 10 speed Columbia. There is a auto body shop down the road from me that closed down 5 years ago, the owner passed away last year and the family is cleaning the place up now. I stopped and asked if there were any old bike there they had 3 to get rid of, the Columbia was the best of the 3, I am not sure what the other 2 are. I think the tan one may be a 26 inch Schwinn at least the tires and wheels are, I have no idea on the ladies bike. the tan bike and ladies bike were already on the scrap metal trailer, they gave me all 3 bikes free. I have cleaned up the Columbia lubed the cables and derailers and patched the front tube. I swapped bars and stem with the tan bike because the have a lot less rust. I found a former owners last name and drivers license engraved into the stem. So far my only cost is a patch for there front tube. I have had the bike out for a few short rides and am at 35 miles, I am going to stop at 100 km on this one.
