Landed this time-capsule 1985 Miyata 610 tonight. It even has the original Miyata radial tires! Just needs a tune & clean and I can get it out on the road. I have to laugh at the "Miyata Cotterless"...

So I am actually faster on my long wheelbase, cantilever beauties than I am on my flashy, racier geometry, road racers. Does that make me weird? Just makes me chuckle when I make passes on the trail.
