I have two Bianchi’s - one is vintage 1988 (Trofeo del Mundo) and a 2020 Infinito carbon. Always find it interesting that whenever I ride the old Columbus frame someone appears and wants to talk bikes - especially vintage bikes (ones they have, are working on, have had….). The new bike only might get a quick nod by someone on a new carbon bike. I found the same is true with old classic cars versus new. Drag out the 71 and people at the gas station, Home Depot, wherever want to talk about owning one, building one, etc. Drive a new car and….meh.

Nostalgia seems to draw people like crazy. New seems to draw either sneers or nada. Interesting observation.

What about you?
