Finally riding a big boys bike
Well everyone it happened to me too! But, I wasnt at the dump. It was in the streets close to my place in Roma .
The story gos my wife way away at work for a few days and I just dropped the kids off at the Nonnis casa (grandparents home) for lunch and I was to lazy to make anything for myself, so what does a American in Roma do? Mcdonalds for lunch, its just 2 blocks away...
On the way this was in the street not to far from a large dumpster was this bicycle laying in the road, I think someone else looked at it and didnt bite.
After asking a few neighbor about (Nothing) so I carried it home.
Then of to the train station to get the wife. She went looking for her beloved dogs in the yard and saw the bicycle and as most of yozsguys out there have heard before, What How much for that stupid thing ( you know you can only ride one at a time!) you stole it< I have to check the account she said!
Now that its oiled and ready for service, complete new paint or just clean up the rust? Its a model 36 late 40 to 1950 3 speed, 28 inch wheel ,simplex derailleur shifter , Universal brakes, alum. fenders and rims.
