Old geezer from Upstate NY
I fiddle with old stuff, agricultural, industrial and transportation related.
Hence bicycles come my way.
I give the low end ones to a local church who fixes them up for less fortunate kids.
the better ones have my interest until some other shiny thing comes along.
I used to be more dedicated to my hobbies, but... 'oh look a squirrel!' happens a lot more now

If you like older bikes, you'll want to spend some time in C&V. I have no idea whether there are any squirrel hunters hanging out there . . .

Welcome to Bike Forums. If you're as old as you suggest then stop by the 50+ forum and say hello to the other old timers. I hang out there. I'm 73.
