How I Spent President's Day

Let's Go Ride A Bike is a blog shared by two ladies, one in Chicago, one in Nashville. Trisha, in Nashville, recently had her bike, Pinky, stolen. I saw the bad news, and offered to send her a bike to use until her new bike came in. Long story short, one of Trisha's friends loaned her a temp bike, but Trisha was in the marketto buy a mixte. So, I built up this Peugeot UO8 for her.

I t has 27x1-1/4" tires on alloy rims, a six speed freewheel, Suntour derailleurs, Shimano shifters, Mafac Racer brakes and cork grips on alloy bars.
It is a pretty classy ride. If you are in the Nashville area, keep an eye out for it.

    VERY dapper, or dandy...

    regardless, quite civilized.

    Good show sir!

Sorry about the word verification. I know you hate it...I hate it, too. But, the Spambots are suddenly coming out of the woodwork, and this is my first line of defense against them.

So, all humans are welcome. Spambots can go to Hell.
