I moved back in with the parents a month ago in preparation for hip surgery that will take me out of the workplace for long enough to not want to figure out how to pay rent. So. All I have been doing in the meantime is fixing up bikes. I've got 4 more in just this week. This forum keeps me reading all night, and nerding around with bikes all day. I love it
The ones I ride:
1985 Trek 560
1984 Raleigh Racing USA Prestige
198? Alpine Cycles (sold at an RRB shop in Lake Geneva as a frame) Reynolds 531 track
1973 Motobecane Grand Jubile
The ones I just have:
1995 Schwinn Sidewinder "Anniversary" MTB
1986 Mongoose M-1 looptail BMX
1983 Univega Viva Sport
1975 Motobecane Super Mirage
1974 Schwinn Varsity
When I moved I left behind 2 or 3 total crap department store style "mountain bikes" (think one piece cranks, Wellgo pedals, bogus thumb SIS shifters) for my neighbor buddy to bring to the co-op next time he had a truckload... Almost too crappy to donate for free, you know? I fix a lot of bikes for other people but don't list them because they aren't mine.
Some of you guys have amazing collections. Contagious disease, this.
