_ A bike frame. I got it in 1976 when I was 15. It's a
Mirella. It's really too small for me now and it's not anything
particularly special in the tubing or construction department.
Even in 1976, it was a bit on the heavy side, what's left of the
paint job is hideous, but it says "let's keep riding" after 40 or
50 miles in a way that no other bike does.
