I rode in to work today on my 1993 or so Trek 8000. It is white with blue splatter on it, aluminum, and is still all original except I put slicks on it for city riding since it only once saw a dirt trail. The parts are Deore DX with thumb shifters, with canti brakes. Its been a nice bike and I'm the original owner. My older bikes are both roadies, those are from 1981 and 1983 and I thought they were both getting old too when I bought the Trek. I also have my CF Kuota, which is no longer new either I guess, 7 years old.
