I start a new job next week. I decided I may want a bike to get to and from work. So my friend, Greg, has loaned me this roadbike to try out, and it’s *awesome*. It’s a CCM Targa, circa-1975-around there, and it has moustache handlebars and a crankshaft that basically can’t be replaced because it’s not made anymore. wicked!
Greg (or his dad, maybe) even tricked it out with a mirror. Awesome.

i feel both 35 years younger and older when I get on this machine. love it.
also, i think the pineapples’s dad would get a kick out of these wheels for his own roadbike-loving ways.
Postscript!
Some of you have asked what I’m going to name the bike. That might be premature because I haven’t bought it yet. But I admit some names have been going through my head, including César or Julio, in honour of the month of July. Or maybe Larry.
