I found the bike I always wanted as a kid - beat up, with a wrecked paint job, rusty, and 28 years old. (S/N GL501100, MFD July, 1975 in Chicago.) I want to restore it as close as possible to the way I would've decked it out when I was thirteen. Here's the progress.

Second Ride Of The Season...
...turned out beautiful. I made the full 22-mile round trip to downtown Wheaton & back. It was overcast & 65 degrees at the start, sunny & 75 at the end.
I have some rubber in my rockets after all that, but joy in my soul.
