Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

ID'ing an old steel fork

A question for veterns. I have an early 80's Cannondale S"-something" road bike. obviously it is aluminum, but it has a steel fork. I saw another bike(different make) on ebay with what I believed to be the exact same fork. Here is what my fork looks like:



Now does this fork look familiar to anyone? was it a generic one that many companies supplied with their bikes back in the early 80's? I assume it came with the bike because the paint is original on the bikes frame and the paint on the fork looks identical. but obviously i dont know for sure because I picked up the bike back in May, and it is 20 years old.
