I thought it would be nice to have an OK bike to leave there to ride when I do visit (next week). So brousing CL I spot a nice Schwinn for $250 and call about it which leads to a conversation about this bike and that we know each of the from C&V!
mrmw gave me a great deal and has been fantastic to deal with. Hopefully we can work in a ride together one day next week.
off topic:
Your '83 Standard is now the last layover. The '78 Fuji Sports 10 left yesterday with a lad of 14 who loves Fuji's and prefers friction shifting, its departure preceded by four others who left over the last few weeks.
Once yours is gone, I'm thinking of changing part of the garage into a home theater, there's so much room out there now.
