Subject: Re: [CR] What do you ride


I ride a 1973 Paramount all original that I bought new. I replaced the wheels so that I could ride the glass laden streets of Laramie, Wyoming but I have the originals in the garage. I really prefer the feeling of sew-ups but I couldn't make them work. I have a Cinelli Track bike from the early eighties that I also got new from my bike shop and a Puch 3 speed city bike that is from the same period. This has been a great topic and I have enjoyed it a lot. If only I could ride outside instead on mounted on a Kurt Kinetic! Alas there is snow everywhere. On Monday, I took my daughter's bike to the post office when my car would not start. It was -47 degrees with wind chill.
