I pulled over into the shade at the top of a hill yesterday and saw a fence covered with old bikes behind the hedge row. This was a hill I climb all the time and you could not see the bikes from the road. Anyway, one of them was this Motobecane Grand Touring, 58cm, black with red head tube, Vitus tubes, 808 I think, but the center number is pretty much wiped out, 43cm chain stays, Motobecane cranks, Weinmann brakes, Normandy hubs, sewups that actually held air when I pumped them up! The Suntour FD is pretty ugly and the RD isn't much better, it has 6 speeds and just guessing I'd say about 13-32 freewheel. Stem mounted Suntour shift levers are ok though. Filthy as you can imagine, but the paint and chrome were in remarkably good shape, considering it was hanging on a fence with cactus growing through the front wheel and Jasmine growing through the rest of it. I like touring bikes and this thing hit me for some reason. The owner gave it to me and now I have to restore it. This is something I have never done. I'll post my pictures tomorrow. Wish me luck.
