GREEN With Envy...
 
4 Attachment(s)
OK, I had started an ORANGE posting (only realizing it was the SECOND Orange posting later on)...so here's a Green One. This is one of my two Schwinn Sports Tourers. 100% original except for tires and tubes. I think I've ridden it twice over the years, as it's just part of my Collection.

Here's the green ones that have passed through my garage,

ca 1947 Raleigh Lenton Sports. I would really like to refinish it but am balking at the idea of losing the marking. Faint as they are. It is apart now.

I have a few.

My 86 Miyata. It now sports Fat Franks, a Blackburn on the front and rear and the Cambium for the time being. Oh yeah, Ortliebs and a BOB trailer as well.

I'm very fond of green bikes. :)

Sheesh GMG, DROOL.

The bar was just raised - I will attempt to meet it. Sort of a blue green...

Aaron, try some Fat Franks when you get a chance.

Julia loves the FFs on her Stumpjumper.

They roll great. She's almost too fast. :)

Here's my latest green bike - NOT finished yet, but pink bar tape has already gone! Saracen Tange OS MTB frame being converted to drop-bar tourer with front & rear racks & panniers, bar bag, 3X7 Deore with Suntour(?) handlebar shifters. Not quite ready for the rough (er) stuff yet. Plan to use this for camping tours.

Long gone, but it sure was green.

Love those early 70s SuperCourses. Auchen, if I'm ever in Detroit I wanna borrow that '72. Mine was a tad too big but still cool.
