OK- more pics from this weekend. I bought a sexy Velo Orange rack, levers, and bars for the Nishiki, but realized a pizza rack fit it better( I do need a pizza bike btw- the Nishiki will do fine

another bike to put the VO rack on. Hmmmmm....The only thing laying around was my 2003 fondreist, unused, mounted in a basement trainer.
Several hours later...
Total heresy.
F*** all the bike genres. This eff'r hauls ass faster than the SR71 Blackbird, even with the upright conversion.
