Hi Everybody,

I picked up kind of a neat old French ladies' bike today. It's a mixte called *ORLY* (made by Motobecane), with stainless steel fenders; it's a 10 speed. This is a LOT heavier bike than I'm used to with the Masis, Mondia & Torpado, so maybe it will be the beach cruiser. It is bilious green and rust colored. :-) The price was right though, so I'm gonna clean it up, repack any bearings I can gain access to and ride it. (Gee, after I've been deleting some of the cottered crank discussions this week, serves me right -- I now have some to deal with!) I thought I'd post a couple of *before* pictures if anybody would like to take a look:

I'll post some *after* pictures later.
