Reminds me of my Raleigh Golden Arrow. Really beautiful bike but it was a bit small for me and perfect for him. He built it up beautifully and rode the crap out of it.

I know it is nothing special, but when you find a 66cm frame that fits you and the type of riding you do, you need to hold on to it. I have tried to get something close but in the end none are quite as comfortable as this Centurion Elite GT.

I have decided to reduce my fleet from 15 to about half that, then the regrets will begin. I have sold or traded many bikes but kept the ones I couldn't part with. Now they will have to go.

It will help you get over it rather quickly.
I just gave my wife the proceeds from six bike sales.
She put it in the kids' college fund, so I feel pretty good about the whole thing actually.
