...there was never a blue and orange model of the International like that. I guess yours was repainted by someone who went to U of Florida.
The chrome I can see on yours still looks good, though, so it might be a good candidate for repainting in one of the colors they sold them in.
...good plan.
...Panera Bread, right off the bike trail near Howe at Northrup. I can't eat them any more...they make me fat.

Regarding the repaint. At least they did a nice job when they repaited it. I was thinking Denver, though.

Thanks so much for the detailed reply. International is what I concluded but I don't know why it has no model name on it. Someone covered it with a Campy sticker?
Anyway I will finish alignment this week and build it with parts I have. If I like the ride I may acquire the campy components it would have come with.

Ride to the Cycling Hall of Fame
An adventure to meet up with fellow vintage bike enthusiasts and persons involved in cycling's history!
Our Third Saturday Vintage Ride in October has multiple ride options. All are pretty flat. On October 21st, Peter Rich is being inducted into the U.S. Cycling Hall of Fame (USCHOF) later that day. George Mount, from Classic Rendezvous, is leading a casual ride from the USCHOF to Winters and back prior to the induction. Likely turnaround will be Steady Eddy's Café in Winters. That ride leaves at 10 a.m. if you want to just drive to Davis and ride that portion. The out and back of that ride is approximately 30 miles. I put together a Ride with GPS route that is probably pretty close to what George is going to use. The Davis Farmer's Market is adjacent to the USCHOF so there will be food options before the induction.
USCHOF-Winters-USCHOF ( 31.3 miles)
https://ridewithgps.com/routes/44514387
I have also put together a route from my house in East Sacramento (47th Street and H Street) to the USCHOF which is 18 miles each way. THAT ride will leave from my house PROMPTLY at 8:30 a.m. so that we have time to get to the USCHOF in time for the 10 a.m. ride. You can opt out of the ride to Winters and hang out at the farmer's market, then return to Sacramento, or you can then join the ride to Winters.
Here is the route from my house to the USCHOF and back. (35.6 miles) https://ridewithgps.com/routes/44514511
Both rides together will total 67 miles.
Here is the Facebook events link with the details and maps.

Looks fun!
Please be aware the west end of Capitol Mall is already closed for Sunday's Ironman, so you may need to finesse the approach to Tower Bridge.

Longer than the regular ride, but a flat route at an easy pace to burn off all those extra holiday calories. 54 miles down the trail and into the Delta. Turnaround in Clarksburg with a return on river roads. Will grab lunch at Husick’s in Clarksburg if they are open before the return. If they are not open, we can grab snacks and drinks at the Holland Market right around the corner.

Fingers crossed for Sunday... I've got a rain or shine event on Sat. If Sunday ends up being the day, can I get that Fuji head badge from you? I'm finishing up my America build soon (it might even be rideable by Sunday).

Another fun ride up to Folsom Dam with the Sacto contingent. The path had its shar of shady spots where wet pavement and wet leaves congregated (glad I brought my fendered bike, even of the fender lines are sub-standard), but all made it through without incident.
Folks should make an effort to get to this monthly ride. The route is good with just enough climbing to make you feel like you accomplished something, the bikes are fun and the natives are very tolerant of outlanders. Heck, if they'll welcome Robvolz and me, they'll welcome just about anybody.
And how can you not want to ride past Folsom Prison on the Johnny Cash Trail?

I will join for as long as I can. Family Christmas party trumps my riding.
This reply is an ice-breaker. Let the banter begin. Did I mention there will be fruitcake?....
