Bikes: 1967 Schwinn Fastback, 5 speed, black; 1971 Milano Sport 10 speed, Simplex, white; 1984 Fuji Club, white; 1999 Trek 2300, red; 2020 Specialized Sprint Disc, red; 2021 SL7, white
I owned a Milano Sport, 10 speed, Simplex, purchased from a Massachusetts bike shop in 1971; hitchhiked there, paid $115 cash, rode it home.
Commuted daily to summer jobs for 3 years, recovered it after a theft (thieves broke a cement seat in front of a Gino's restaurant to slip the chain), took a road trip from Plymouth to Marthas Vineyard to Hartford end of one summer.
Eventually rode to Montreal for a long college weekend.
It was replaced by a Fuji Club in 1984, and left behind in an out of state move.
