I got this when he sold his house to move to an assisted living facility. It’s just been sitting in my garage for a couple years. Busy with the kid and all that. Well, we just got a little child trailer, and I didn’t want to pull it with my mountain bike so figured it would be a good time to clean this guy up. New tires and tubes. Cleaned and lubed. Waxed. I thought it was trying hard to look like an old Schwinn, so I thought some nice shiny fenders would help out with that.

I have so many memories of going on rides with him, and of him taking it camping. I always thought it was a nice looking bike. I’ll have to show him a picture of it all cleaned up next time I see him, I don’t think he’s ridden it in at least a decade.

Next on the agenda is new brake pads, and some retro lights. Any other suggestions? Maybe a white saddle seat, or different handlebars? I’m pretty sure its only value is sentimental, so the best suggestions are cheap suggestions. Thanks!
