Wow, I forgot how long the Windsor Willow (loving known as the Purple Peaple Eater) and I have been together. She is still going great and is a terrific basic bike for the value. My DH and LBS have tweeked her to match my riding style/size and LBS guys even went out and found purple Candies pedals for her. I ride every day, usually 20 to 25 miles and longer on the weekends and the bike is extremely reliable. At the time that I purchased her, there were very few budget choices available for the small size that I needed, but that has changed alot over the the past years. If the guilt doesn't get me, I'll probably upgrade next year and retire the PPE to a quiet corner of the attic. Maybe........
