And apparently 20/20 is where one of my friends sends anyone that brings a French bike into her shop. We were talking about my mixte a couple of weeks ago, and she immediately said that Alex (?...I'm blanking on the name now for some reason) at 20/20 would definitely be the person in town to see about it, as he works on a lot of older French bikes, and knows his stuff where their quirks are concerned. (I've promised myself that as soon as I save one more month worth of living expenses, I get to put money into the Mercier.)

Teigyr...<knock,knock>....so did you go out to see the Takara today? Or did you do a bit too much partying last night?
Maybe you bought the mixte and are having so much fun you can't get off to post about it yet?

Got her!
No name yet. The bike has some rusty spots and the guy did not do as much work as we thought. The chain has some kinks in it and it needs a serious cleaning. Here she is in all her glory! The cat is the first one brave enough to explore. He made sure to rub his face all over the rear fender.

Dang, teigyr- that's one SMOKIN' bike! Yeeeeooowww! And the orange is really very pretty (and maybe it hides the rust a little?).
Your cat has the right idea...I'd be rubbing against it, too, if it were mine.
Man, that's pretty! Have you ridden it yet?Check out my running blog: www.turtlepacing.blogspot.com
