Thank you for the info. A family member believed it was from about 1967 or 1968 so that's spot-on. All sorts of memories attached to that bicycle.

Hi Murray Missile,

Thanks for the info. Interesting that you have success in the fall. That does sound counter-intuitive. What do you qualify as "low to mid range"?
