Update. I parked the mountainbike outside against a public park fence by my house and after a few days it vanished. I saw a number of kids looking at it before it disappeared, so hopefully is being repaired or used for parts. A short stumpy relative of mine who rides a LOT and has lost 40 pounds riding a mountainbike on the road over the last year wants to try a road-bike again and he is going to give the Bianchi a test drive. I found a neighbor who likes old Schwinn bikes and he is supposed to look at the Varsity, so they may all be out of my hair in the near future and to maybe better fates than they looked like they were going to have a bit ago.
