I think I'll just change out the tires and live with the steel rims until I decide how much I love the bike I stopped to get some free "old ten speeds" and they were so rusty they really should be trashed (huffy & murry from the 80's left outside for decades).

I just took some pics (with my dog ) but I will need dh to help me as my old computer with the softward I know how to format pictures is dead.

I also ordered the Zinn book from the library.
