Man, that's a nice touring bike, can't wait to see it refurbished either! I stopped by the local Salvation Army, but there wasn't much. They had two, bith of them insanely priced for a thrift store. The first was a repainted and polished up Le Tour in solid red with no decals. Probably a base model, as it had stamped drops, and what looked like a Continental fork(fingered chrome cap). It had really nice tires and a Vetta saddle, but the seat post was shimmed and it had the chrome wheels. A nice looking bike for sure, but no way I was going to drop $130 for it. The other was a splatter painted(stock) Peugeot MTB, for $100. Maybe I will get lucky at the flea market this weekend, but so far the bikes are stacking up faster than I can fix them up. The Voyageur is coming along, but the LBS installed a cartridge BB with the wrong length spindle, so I have to beat it to the store before they close tomorrow night.,,,,BD
