I just got back "WITH THE BIKE" guys! It was love at first sight and it rides so smooth. I haven't put it on a scale yet but the owner says it weighs 18 lbs. He worked as a bike mechanic for 10 years and it is in top shape. It was a 12 hour round trip but worth it to me. I spent all day but only about $50 in gas and $550 for the bike. I am ecstatic! I'll post up some nice pictures tomorrow when I can get in the sunlight. It doesn't have a single blemish or rub mark on it anywhere except a small paint flake off the crank. The way the British Green shows metal flake in the sunlight is simply stunning! The biking gods have shined on me!
I really appreciate all the kind words and encouragement. I am going to do my first century on her soon. You guys are awesome and have helped my cycling learning curve quite a bit. I look forward to learning a lot more from you and getting to know all of you a lot better. Talk to ya'll guys later.
