Depends on where you happen to be at what time of day:
It's no longer uncommon to see snow in places like Abha (mountainous south-west) or Tabuk (north-west.) The inner regions have been experiencing frozen bodies of water this week. These guys shot these videos on Friday and Saturday:

Great picture. Love the Starfighter in the background.
You do look like it's about time for that pancake, though.

Uh what's up with the mini Starfighter? I wonder if Lockheed threw in a wind tunnel model during the "sale of the century".
Nice Gazelle

Hi all,
Steve from Malta. Here's a bike I've just started restoring. It's a Legnano commuter bike, (an Italian brand) I believe this one is a 70s or 80s model. 4-speed. My uncle who used to race bikes and still fixes them up had given this to my dad years ago and was left to languish in a humid garage.
I wanted a road bike, my dad wanted to clear out the garage so here we go!
The chrome is gone and the frame has surface rust, but all the mechanicals are spot on, thanks to my uncle's perfectionism over 20 years ago
Anyone interested can follow the resto on the facebook page legnanovintagebicyclerestoration

^I know, I'm just envious of the level of C&V action you see in Elwood, IN.
Plus I've been a benefactor of your stringent sizing requirements. The Trek 760 still awaits a proper build.
Enjoy the spring weather @sloar

Been perfecting the DI steely eyed look, have we. Don't eyeball me boy, eyes front and locked.
Wow, brings back some memories that were long hidden away.

Nice looking Clubs
Re Khatfulls Fujis early in the posted- Hey I've been off the site for a long time due to life challenges but one of my favorite bicycles was my 85 Fuji Club and you appear to know what a great bicycle it is. I was surprised by how clean your 88 is - stunning. Fuji always has the best colors and decals i felt at that time. I've ridden them all pretty
Much in my years and Japanese vintage are what I really enjoy. It is the time when the Kapanese proved how good they were. I've had some fujis, the Chromed out Team (flamingo pink- no thanks!) and a club, and s10 & s12s LTD.
I felt the club was long due to stronger tubing and a near perfect balance of being a racer yet also a touring bicycle as good as any with just a little additions.
The Fuji Club is one of the best deals no body knows about. It's a true Club racer which is something from U.K. And people didn't start on $10K in carbon frames and wheels, even if they had the money. You have some gems and it's amazing a person can get really superb bicycles for a few hundred and some new tires grease and brakes and they are ready to ride with much less hassle and cost than anything in production today

How tall are you? Is that a 60?? And what brand model was it originally? I like the lug work and fork crown.

Here are four of us on the Tour de Staten Island this past Sunday. We did 50 miles. I'm with my Lemond RS, @wilfried with his Tern, @ascherer with his restored Raleigh International, and Andy's cow-orker with his Trek.
