Memories of my first road bike...
I was a high school a Sophomore. It was the fall of 1982. I saved all summer to buy this beautiful bike I saw in the sears catalog. I rode the bike all through high school. Even though I got a car when I was 16, the bike was my real love. I grew up in rural NW Florida and it was 10 miles the "town". Even now I recall all the thinking I did and how much enjoyment time on the bike bought me on those "long" commutes. One of my great regrets was having that bike stolen some years later. I just took the sport back up after a couple decades off mostly because of the fond memories I have riding that old 10 speed. Here is what it was.
