1986 Miyata Pista. Nice and simple, made in Japan, the Team Pista was the pro level frame, this one was the work horse.

Got one just like it in the basement. Hasn't moved since the early 90's, probably has less than 10 km on it, always on a track.

Wish we had a track nearby. Otherwise it's wall art.

well don't tell the people on the single speed forum that track bikes are only good for the track; they think everyone should ride a fixed gear, on road, offroad, whatever,
