New Bike
Posted: October 20, 2009 at 10:07 amThis weekend I acquired a new bike. It’s a 1980 Schwinn Voyageur 11.8 in chrome. It will be replacing my 2008 Giant Sedona as my commuter bike. I purchased it from the second owner who only had it about 8 months before selling it to me. It is in fantastic shape and I was riding on the Long Leaf Trace less than an hour after arriving home with it.
The Brooks saddle in the pictures has been replaced with my own B17 and I’ve added a headlight already. I realize it’s an older bike, but riding a proper roadie after over 1000 miles on a comfort bike, I feel like I’m learning to ride all over again.
