In 1971, my parents bought my sister and I, a Gitane, orange, 10 speed, to ride while in college. I loved that Gitane and to this day, I wish I could have kept it. I finally gave the bike away (in 1995) to someone who I thought was "deserving" of that bike. I loved that bike and I felt like I gave away my soul when I had to part with it. One of the best things I liked about that bike was the paint job...it was orange...the bike itself was way to big for me, but little choice in those days...but it was sooooo pretty![]()
