Trek 360 I got for...
A batch of bagels. While the bagels I make are darn good, it was not a fair trade. Too bad there's so much rust on this bike, it rides really well. I wish I knew more about it - I cannot find the serial # anywhere.

that is such a nice bike! Here in Holland the Trek bikes just recently came through. I'm looking for a late 80's, early 90's Trek race frame for a long time. Especially in yellow. No kidding 
And no, I will not post closeups, hehe.,,,,BD

By the way, from that link you can look up the specs on the bike. They are on page 15 of the 1988 catalog. Double-butted Crome Moly frame with 700 rims...you did really well on this one!

Thanks for the catalog link!
Too bad there's no price list. I wish I could time travel, stock up on these bikes. I really do feel like roadbikes have gotten to the point of affluent toys. I have no interest in buying 99.9% of the bikes on the market today. Out of this catalog? Lots.

Also worth mentioning: it doesn't fit me at all 
and the seatpost is frozen.
My wife likes it though! Though it is too small for her...I believe it is a 21".
