With love from: Illinois

Posted on 5:05 AM by Unknown
I received this super nice photo and story from Illinois by Tim B:
Dad and his new Schwinn Varsity, May 1973
Dad and his new Schwinn Varsity, May 1973
Pictured: My dad's 197X (1974?) Schwinn Varsity.  Put some air in the tires, gave it a test run, and took it out for a GREAT ride  this morning. It needs to be greased, tuned, de-gunkified, and have all the other things done to it that have not been done in 20+ years.  But for now... Perfect. Solid. LOVE that bike. I've been window-shopping for road bikes for years, but I think my resources will be better spent "tuning up" this one. Love it.  If it ain't broke...

Vintage classic bikes live on and get to see adventures from generation, to generation
