I took the Capri Cordova out for a 14.84 mile ride today, getting me up to 24 miles so far (9.15 miles + 14.84 miles). I had lots of problems with spontaneous gear changes and shifting that I now attribute to the rusty derailleur cable having unwanted friction against the housing. Adjusting cable tension up or down plus adjusting the high screw on the rear derailleur didn't help. Perhaps I need new cables and housings, ugh. Pictures coming soon.
