Hi, Phil. I, too, found myself in trouble with the state (Colorado) motor vehicle Department. So I purchased my first ten-speed, a Schwinn Varsity and began to ride to work. Four months and 30 pounds later I bought a Gitane Tour de France, the first of two TdF's. Since I am reluctant to replace what already works, I gradually found myself owning a few old, I mean vintage, bikes. How many others on the CR list were encouraged to opt for alternative transportation, i.e., the bicycle?
