Today I rode a LEGEND...

Today I rode a LEGEND... that I found at a yard sale this morning.

Its been a while since I posted so I'll see if I can remember how to post pictures.

Here it is in all its glory:
And I hope it brings back not too VIVID memories to anyone on this Forum old enough to to have worked in a bike shop in the 1970s.
Like Passenger pigeons, these things used to be found in the thousands but now they are extremely rare, especially here in Canada.
Feast your eyes...

Binky

Reminds me of a C.Itoh but perhaps nicer?

"Buy the stereo, get the bike for FREE at Matthews Stereo, top of the hill, Daly City."

If you didn't take the bike, they would knock $40 off, which told you what the bike was worth.
