So I picked up a 1979 Volkscycle 10-speed fixed up with modern driveline/wheels for 170 bucks off craigslist. Replaced the tubes, brakes, added Mr. Tuffy's, made a few adjustments and it rides wonderful! The next day I was going to head to a friends house in Glendale, and I live in Calabasas, which is 31 miles away. So I thought hey why not. So I biked to Glendale and back later on in the day and wow! This is my first real commute with a road bicycle and I think I'm in love. I've only driven really crappy mountain bikes and this thing blow them out of the water so hard. On my way back I timed it so I hit the streets at rush hour and beat the traffic soooooo easily. :-D
