Very nice!

I agree, the GJ is a real classic and I like the way mine rides.

Here's my '74 GJ

dck ^ That's a terrific GJ ! (You have to love that Nervex Stronglight Pivo French goodness!)

Ivandarken - Looks like you're leading a British expedition on a French bike! Is that proper, old chap?

Orbeamike - That Haral is on the edge! Yowser!

Rootboy - Thanks for the compliment on the other GJ -(it was one of my winter projects).

My favorite French ride was my early 1970s Gitane Tour de France:

Peugeot PLX-10.

You'll never look at a PX-10 the same way again.
