So Happy I could explode!!!

[skoda]

One of my top five dream bikes (within reason). This is my new road project for the winter, then will start training on it to ride in the Missouri MS150. Plan to overhaul her and put on better brakes, Brooks saddle, then next winter totally restore it. Check out the thumb shifters.

I had resigned to buiding up a Super Sport part by part and painting it Kool Orange, but along came this and I couldn't be happier.

Has all Shimano Dura Ace equiptment except the brakes which are going to be replaced with more modern Dia Compes. I am so very happy.

Presenting my 1973 Schwinn World Voyageur

Nice score.

I'm going to start judging whether or not I have been a good boy each year by if I get an orange Schwinn at xmas! :mrgreen: This makes year number 2.

I saw one of those World Voyageurs a couple weeks ago that was opaque green with a sachs torpedo 2 speed coaster hub and 700c wheels man it was a pretty bike

That is a sweet bike.

Love that frame/fork. Its hard to beat the look of a nice lugged frame and with the chrome it does not get any better. :mrgreen:

Excellent score, congrats! That saddle looks like the same one I have on an old Varsity, easily the most uncomfortable saddle I've used. The Brooks will be a great upgrade.

Your cat looks like the chubby cousin of one of mine:
