OK, here's mine. I had to drive an hour for it and I only did so because the owner said it was *MINT*. Well ... it was NOT mint. She wanted $100. and I gave her $65.

Rode it to work today 13 miles in 45 minutes. I'd say it rates as a decent commuter! It needed the usual:

Drop Handlebars
Wheels (plus bearings & grease for the replacement wheels from another old bike on CL)
Cables & housings
Chain & derailer cleaning
Tires (spent more than I expected on Armadillos) but at 120 psi - they help me fly
Bottle cages
Racing saddle (not shown in picture)
