Oh how I love European racing bicycles... My first racing bicycle was a Dutch Batavus Professional. Built it up with.. [gasp!] Shimano 600 components, but boy - what a great ride. Still have the frame and it's in great shape. Pulling it out of the closet this weekend to pull the brakes off of it and give it a good polish. Pics soon!
In the meantime, take a gander at these dutch racing bicycles. Thanks to Twitter follwer, Strikk for the link!
aah, that's a very pretty one indeed :-)
ReplyDeletemakes me want to go out and ride, if only it wasn't raining ;-)
