retiring my dads raleigh,-until next year.

well,i did right by my pop and,i enjoyed it,at the same time.
after tacoing the front wheel,i got some new wheels,new derailleurs,a new crankset, saved the brooks seat and,had a good time fellowshipping with you guys here.

so yesterday i did around 20 miles on her and, this morning,right ast 30 miles. then i came home and,put it in the attic.
next up is my dads gitane. i will be riding my mountain bike mainly though,because i dont feel like im gonna break something all the time.

i put all of the stuff i removed like,hubs,derailleurs,etc.,in plastic bags and,i guess at some point when i shave off around 100lb or so,i may put some back on the bike.

anyways,thanks guys for giving me encouragement to get back in the saddle.
