Steel frame, derailleurs don't go click, shoes don't click into the pedals, you'll be fine. There'll be plenty of people there selling vintage kit if for some reason you get flagged. Post a pick of your bike and the peanut gallery here will either bless it or let you know what to do to pass muster.
