Just joined the forum, I am actually kattt's older sister for those who know her... I was in London the other week and went on the Eilidh ride which was a really awesome experience and made me think I'd like to possibly get into fg/ss (that and knowing how much Kat enjoys it).
I have my grandmother's old Peugeot and I'm trying to salvage the frame to use... I know it's pretty beat and it would be easier just to get a new bike but I think the challenge is part of the fun. Plus, I'll hopefully learn a lot about bikes.
I believe it's a 1974 UO-18, here's a pre-dissasembly and rust removal pic:
I know it's a low-end, mass-produced bike and probably not technically "worth" the work and money to make it rideable again, but I'm ok with that ;)
You didnt bring some sort of inverse blender, with you did you?
