Literally heard that last night in regards to my still-new-to-me AHH. Look, I know the tires are a little shabby, and the saddle doesn't fit the aesthetic (but it does fit me), but really, "that thing?"
:-) OK, as it was coming from a young 20-something on a crabon looking Scattante bike with skinny tires and not much else, I figured it was a compliment. I should start a blog of unprompted comments Rivendells bring. So far, in less than 2 months I've had the usual "how old is it" on two different occasions. Some guy who looks like he doesn't ride bikes asked if I could go over 40 mph on it (was happy to show him the computer's max speed was currently recorded as 39.55). And not quite a comment, but the train rider in the seat next to me very conspicuously doing a web search on "A. Homer Hilsen" Not that I can blame any of them, (OK, I do hold it against the "how old is?" guys), it _is_ a great looking bike. In fact, as I often thing to myself, much better looking than it should considering it's built up almost entirely from second-hand accumulation. And finally, something (IMO) so cliched (no offense intended) I thought I'd _never_ do, before, well..., getting my own put together, the flickr photo set <http://www.flickr.com/photos/47116230@N00/sets/72157627777685182/>.
