Wonderful! Such a nice array of colours, forms, and textures.
I meant to reply to your earlier post of having set side photography due
to employment circumstances. I had set aside cycling for a very long time,
using my beloved 1975 Motobecane Grand Tour only once in a while. Four years
ago I came across a Nishiki Grand Touring in a thrift store that c aught my
attention by way of the barcon shifters. A closer look revealed that it had
been modified with a lot of expensive parts, but the price tag was a mere
$18.49 ($24.99 minus the 25% senior discount). I bought it in a flash, took it
home, then disassembled it and gave it a thorough cleaning. I later found that
the expensive parts added up to more than $1,200! Some of them did not work
well together, so it has been further modified.
The cycling bug bit me hard, and now I have a nice collection of mostly
French bikes prior to 1984. Plus I am a member of a local bike co-op, working
as a volunteer mechanic one day a week. It's all healthy exercise and social
interaction.
Taken at the cape a year ago. I miss the cape especially Wellfleet Bay
Wildlife Sanctuary.
