I do read some of the profiles from time to time, for local riders. How long have you lived in Detroit? Are you actually living in Detroit or some other town in SE Michigan.

Description:  Extreme overdose of the bumper of an 80 something chevy truck while under the influence of 20 mph speeds, teen degree weather, no eye protection, and the desire to get back faster has resulted in the retirement of this bike

found a bike in Salvation Army thrift store, I asked what they wanted for it, and the lady said it would take too much work to get it working and I could take it no charge.
I cleaned it up, put on a new (longer) chain, new tires & tubes and off I went! I have the original front derailer and close to era for the rear
