Somebody went down hard.

That bike has "Rebuild me as a cyclocross bike" written all over it!

Be sure to have a shop check the frame for trueness and the general overall health of the frame. Before you try modifying the Miyata, research it a little bit. The 1000 is highly regarded in some circles.

well a friend and i went to the local Bike shop to get a bit for an aluminum Ralegh.
We told them the bike is in the car should we bring it in. A cute Girl said it must be old dont you want to buy a new bike
My friend wanted me to put my gas engine on that bike the Miyata
But Ive spent too much time on the other bike to change now
