I live for the CABE
This is a very cool story about a very nice nice lady who lives in my neighborhood , she was born in 1947 and received this 1955 schwinn hornet for her 8 th birthday from her very wealthy uncle who lived in Indianapolis , Indiana , i was riding around the neighborhood about 10 years ago when her husband stopped me on my old black phantom & wanted to show me his wifes old bicycle , she told me about the history of the bicycle she had received for her birthday , they are very nice people , he is 76 and still rides his bicycle about 8 months out of the year daily , i was out for a ride today and stopped by their house to say hello and she said she was ready to sell her bicycle and she wanted me to have it , i said i would love to have it in my collection if she was for sure about setting it free after all these years so we made the deal & i am very happy to have a great addition to my collection , i hope you guys liked the story !

Here are some photos of her & her uncle the day she received the bike !
