1986 Local Craig's List find, nice smooth riding machine. 26lbs, not too bad.

thank you, for those pages, nice to see what I have here, it's got a date/build code of 3216 on the Headbadge, so it's built in late 1986 for a 1987 Model....

Local CL find? How did I miss that one!?!
Nice lookin' ride. I can't believe I didn't see it on the DFW CL.

I cruise the Local Dallas/Fort Worth Craig's List all the time, probably not a good money saving idea.
At least bicycles are relatively cheap and don't take up a lot of room.
