[OrRando] We could do this!

[David Rowe]

I bought a 1973 Raleigh Sports this Winter for $43 on eBay ... perfect
condition. Cost me more to ship it here than I paid for it - still - the
SA-3 hub alone would have cost more than the complete bike!  It's my
post-Glacier project.  Can't wait to bring it out on the Wine Country
Populaire this fall.
