Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Could be a 5500 from 1995 but I will let the Trek experts chime in.

This question has been asked before, read through this thread.

Yep. Looks like the 1995 trek 5500 OCLV Saturn team colors.

Yeah a mid 90's model of the Trek 5500 (if full Dura Ace) or 5200 (if the rest of the groupset is Ultegra) before they moved the brake cable under the top tube.

A very decent frameset at the time.

Looks like you've dropped your chain though...
