    If I were into naming inanimate objects, I might call this “Ol’ Blue.” Not the oldest bike I own, but the only one I purchased new. It moved around with me for years w/o getting ridden a lot, but over the last 6-7 years has been ridden plenty. Original steel wheels went bye-bye once I realized how exciting wet braking was! Fenders, saddle & shifters are not original to this bike, pictured in all it’s late winter, muddy glory!

    Thanks Bob
