The grocery-getter/touring bike, also possibly for low-key riding. Steel frame. British racing green, possibly with cream and red-orange. Leather accoutrements. (I suppose if it's BRG, I have to go with a Brooks, right?) Racks, fenders, the lot. Knobbly tires for wet and gravelly roads.

I'm going to stop now, at least until I have enough money to actually do this. This is what happens when I don't sleep. I start thinking about what I'm going to do with my bike next. Or with my next bike.
Sounds beautiful! Am starting to dream myself of what is going to happen to my Trek...I refuse to dwell on the fact that my old LBS sold me a bike that is too long for me but to focus on what to do with it/replace it with. Thankfully I have no money for this until next year
