Colnago caught in the wild!
I thought I would share these pic of a bike at the KalTour here in Michigan. I guess daddy bought it new, upgraded a few things along the way and the daughter was the lucky one in the family who fit. If the chrome lugwork wasn't enough. the multi-colored fog paint job on the square tubing was a trip!

It's a very nice looking Colnago. You're probably right thinking it may have originally belonged to dad or someone from a previous generation. It looks like a well kept 'timepiece'.
If it were mine, I'm very certain my son wouldn't inherit it - he has NO respect for his own possessions let alone my stuff, haha.

Its a shame she did not ride the Century. I helped out at the SAG stop for it and I saw no C&V bikes there.

A piece of classic Colnago Art would be right up there with the 'Mona Lisa' or 'The Last Supper'.
