My old Nishiki Ariel
Hello everyone! My name is Grant and I've been cycling for a lot longer than I care to admit and my steeds are old and well worn but they have character and still run great so saving the money for my other hobbies. My steady cycling took a bit of a hiatus when my boys came along but my youngest and I go mountain biking two or three days a week. Hope you don't mind me tagging along here. I promise I'm not a biter and I do shower regularly.
I hope you accept my recent addition to your forum:

I was looking for information on my old Nishiki Ariel I bought back in 1988 or 1989 and stumbled on that thread started 10 years ago! That thread has been resurrected a number of times and I'm proud to post on it!
I also own a mid-1980's Pinarello Montello all Campy with Delta brakes.
