Bikes are okay, I guess.

I have to say though, the most fun (when not riding) is perusing this forum for the knowledge and images of the great bikes you all have. The stories and the overall mood of this place is fantastic. I wish I had more to contribute but what I have would be boring to most of you. Not that much happens to me.
Panasonic/National made a LOT of bikes, under their own label and for others as well. Many desirable Schwinns originated there. Do some research and you'd be surprised what's out there. Keep an eye on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace; you never know what'll turn up. Good luck with your search.
