1979 Soma Prestige, purchased for $75, except for saddle height and bar adjustment ready to go as is. Needs nothing to be Challenge ready.


And then this buy of the year.......... maybe the decade. A 1982 Nishiki International AND a 1988 Bridgestone RB-3 along with 2 floor pumps for $55. I cleaned up the Bridgestone put $20 worth of used tires on it and sold it a few weeks ago for $140. So I basically have the Nishiki for free plus an extra $65. So, if I have interpreted the rules correctly I can spend $165 on the Nishiki if I choose to enter it.



The Nishiki doesn't need much to ride in the challenge, a rear tire and tube. I have a Kenda blackwall I have about $20 in and several salvaged tubes so I can have it in Challenge ready condition in a few minutes and still have about $140 credit available.
