Sad end to a sturdy beast

Nov-20-18 07:29 pm

My brother-in-law reports the demise of his trusty commuter ride.  How many of you keep your receipts for 48 years?

One Mercier racing bicycle, age 48.
Born 1970.  Birth certificate attached.  I was 17 when I bought it.  Note the telephone numbers for the bike shop on the sales receipt.
Raced 1971-1973, including in the 1972 U.S. Road National Championships.
Commuter bike, 1973-2018.
Died today of a broken frame.
