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

Old Peugeot bike

Hi, I have an old peugeot road bike from i think the late 70s or 80s. It has an orange frame, flat tires, hasnt been used in 20 years and is filthy. I would love to identify this bike and do what i need to get it back to tip top shape. I will need all the help i can get though. I would also like to do this as cheaply as possible. any help is appreciated.
PS( i dont know much about bikes)

the classics & vintage forum and the mechanics forum both would be of much more use to you than road cycling.

Post pictures.

Also - look for the bike via Google. It will probably help you find the exact model you have.

You might be lucky at this site:

It took about 90 seconds to find an old Peugeot I used to own:



(Same color too!)
