Finally got the "commuter" back on the road
I haven't ridden it since 2003 when I took it on a 9-day, 1000-mile tour. Since then I've taken some components off it for other bikes and it hasn't been complete. I've been commuting on the MTB in the mean time but over the weekend I took the headset out of the MTB to replace it with a spare I had and found that it is JIS and my spare is ISO. So I have a new JIS headset on order and while I'm waiting for it, I put "Ol' Orange" back together.

Ahhh...the too many bikes, not enough time to ride them all problem. Glad to see you're giving the old girl some love.
