Oh, and let's not forget New Jersey. I'm from NY and Jersey is definitely a foreign land.

If yuo are in the UK, you should also check out retrobike.co.uk, which is a UK based classic bike forum. It is more MTB biased though. Whereas here the focus is largely on road bikes.

If you were in the USA and that orange Condor is the bike in question you'd probably have it sold in minutes, not hours.

Welcome aboard, glad you found us, you're in the right place, a finer lot of enablers you will not find.You will come to realize that you can't just sell off a bike until you have enough that you should sell some off but can't bring your self to do it.
