Things have sure changed since the days of the fabulous red or blue Schwinn under the tree.

Funny you should mention "red or blue." I just rescued one of each color from a garage sale. Schwinn Varsities, late 70's, men's blue and lady's red. All original from the LBS with the era speedometers (1000 and 400 mi respectively).

BTW, your link goes to a "sign-up" page.
