Show us your mixte!

[Rebecca19804]

Hi everybody

Found this forum looking for mixte stuff on the 'squinternet'. I've now lost several hours of my life... Wow, what a great place! And the mixte drool factor on this thread is nearly debilitating.

So, I've just bought my first mixte: a late 1970s Puch Princess.

She (yes, it's a she... christened Dora... hmm, I'll have to post something in the thread on that topic!) has been sitting in my living room for a month, where I've admired her and plotted and planned her restoration and then realised I just wasn't going to have the time to tackle this project myself - if I want to actually get some long hours riding her this summer, that is. So yesterday she went off to Brixton Cycles, an incredibly friendly & knowledgeable local workers' co-op, for a complete overhaul and facelift.

I'm collecting her on Tuesday - can't wait! Will post proper photos then but for now here she is as I purchased her.

Pedal on,
Rebecca
