Hello from Israel
Hi all,
This Forum seems so full of information and nice people, just had to join.
My partner and I are investigating a number of classic bikes we found in the last few month.
While we mostly ride techical MTB and long cross country trips, we fell in love with the old racing biks - to refurbish and to ride.
We have an old Tandem bike from Russia with all the original tooling ... a Motobecan and a Bertine ... and more.
So I will be asking questions, reading and learning and trying to date the bikes we have.
Cheers All
Anya
