I showed up to a C&V ride on my 1947 Monark Rocket. One guy told me it had the wrong chain guard. I said yes and the chain guard cost me $3 not to have to roll up my pant leg.
I did the metric century route on a large invitational ride upon my 1968 Raleigh Superbe 3 speed a while back. Several people told me that it wasn’t possible on such a heavy bike. Fooled’em.
